Well, there are better memes, yes. But life isn't all about the memes my friend. Having the ISPs fucking us over again is worst than shitty memes.

Well I can agree with you there PenPen. I agree the ISP's are out of hand. And it happened under NN to boot. Yes I agree but there are ways to fuck them back by simply not using Comcast.

I don't.

Also, I simply don't trust the FCC to regulate trade. That is literally not their job. And even if it were under NN well..... they are fired mein dude

Seriously though FCC is the best, when it's actually working, to regulate the ISPs. As with the IPS monopolies well that happened before NN.

I simply don't trust the FCC. I don't want ISP's regulated by an agency where censorship is literally part of the job. I think that if you have an issue with the monopolies you should take it up with the FTC, whoms't it's literally their job to regulate trade with.

Net Neutrality And The Problem With “Experts”
Regulating the internet via the FCC, of course, thoroughly prevents innovators, consumers, and producers from taking advantage of the experience and knowledge of those who are actually working in the marketplace.

This isn’t a problem, apparently, for those who insist that government must dictate to consumers and producers alike. After all, we have “experts.”

Unfortunately, when it comes to something as complex and non-clinical as a functioning market, “experts” of the type employed by government panels are of little help. Hayek continues:

Today it is almost heresy to suggest that scientific knowledge is not the sum of all knowledge. But a little reflection will show that there is beyond question a body of very important but unorganized knowledge which cannot possibly be called scientific in the sense of knowledge of general rules: the knowledge of the particular circumstances of time and place. It is with respect to this that practically every individual has some advantage over all others because he possesses unique information of which beneficial use might be made, but of which use can be made only if the decisions depending on it are left to him or are made with his active coöperation.
Central planning is Cuban and Venezuelan bullshit. We had a close shave -- Thank Providence for Trump.
That's a pretty broad argument. Specifically speaking, how is net neutrality stifling creativity? Monopolies do the same thing.

Creativity is bred from competition, there isn't any.
FCC/Gov't can stop monopolies if they want to, stifling creativity is not what they are meant to do.

Trump fucked over his own voters. There is NO WAY you can spin this in favor of him. This was the most stupid act he has done since taking the oath of office.

Trump is in the White House because of rural voters for the most part -- the very people who are going to get fucked over hard by this. Most of Trump's America are living in areas with only one broadband choice. The people he needs to turn out in future elections are left wondering what was the fucking point.

What's more, we as a people are better than this. Western civilization is one of great warriors, artists, scientists, philosophers. This merchant class bullshit is beneath us. It doesn't reflect who we are as a people. It's petty and base, and it's really quite amazing that people on the alt-right would applaud this. I would argue we should aspire to something greater than this. Something nobler than a society of hucksters reaching into each other's wallets to steal a few shekels.

I asked you before, I can't respond to you without pointing out the fact that you are borderline retarded (for real). I try to ignore you, but you just keep coming at me. I don't normally beat up the helmet boy who rides the short bus, but motherfucker I will bury you in that fucking playground.
