“Net Neutrality” is your typical liberal lie on bumper sticker.

By striking it down, providers will be able to provide increased performance for those willing to pay.

Currently, we have restricted capacity and rates because the gov’t won’t allow for performance based pricing.

I sure hope so. Everyone in my subdivision is stuck with the same 6 meg DSL AT&T provider. They refuse to expand the BW and also refuse to expand service to those moving into the area ("all the BW is used up", they say)...

No one stands for innovation, customer service and value like Comcast and AT&T.

It’s like putting HOT lanes on the information superhighway.

LOL.

You don’t actually believe that this will be reality, do you?

Who do you want to pay more, movie producers or those who rent movies?

Which do you believe will pay more based on this change, and why?

Really? When there's no requirement whatsoever for increased performance?

Here's what's actually going to happen: every user of a streaming service like Netflix or Hulu or Amazon not tied to AT&T or ComCast or their ISP will be forced to pay more to receive the same quality of service.

In the name of "free" markets, we will all be charged more for the same service by monopoly abusers.
