How much did Hillary and Bill get paid to push this ‘net neutrality’ crap?

Who got the ‘donations’ in Congress and who sold ‘speeches’ for this sellout of our country?

I want to know - lots of us want to know. Earn your keep Paul Ryan... find out who was on the take.

For the time being, what you suggest is not an option for me or many here and in the US—uh we need money to eat...the garden I grow certainly helps, but I don’t have a farm...paychecks and investing unfortunately are the most expeditious way to obtain money for most...

And therein lies the rub...you don't think the Founding Fathers felt the same? Did they not have families to feed and businesses/farms,etc to run? Did they not have jobs and so forth? For some reason, we believe we have far more to lose than the Founders did, which is why we will never revolt or change otherwise. We are all slaves to the government - to debt - and are too afraid of losing everything to act.

You are correct about founding fathers, however, I bet only 1 in 10 (if that) Freepers or any one else has bothered to even call their elected officials to complain...

I bet only 1 in 10 has forwarded this article in an email to friends/relatives.

I bet only 1 in 10 has sent article to radio show or newspaper.

Don’t expect me to go off grid to starve the beast/stop working when others won’t even lift their d*mn phone receiver or send an email...

Remember, only 3% supported the war for Independence.

True~tho it seems to me that there was an organized effort of sorts....

If there were an organized effort to block handing over the Internet, I would certainly join.

If starving the beast on your own is what you are doing, I commend you for being in a position to do so...Perhaps in the future, I may be at that point. In the meantime I have a $4,000 half-yearly property tax bill due end of the month—until I am able to move, that is one fixed expense that is going to have to be paid with money.

As I said, I am not going to make a major lifestyle change of not working for money when others won’t lift a finger.

ICANN is a PRIVATE organzation, it is a cultural organzation at best, and with NO enforcement powers.
