Keep Them Government Bureaucrats Out of My Internet Service
Freedom has prevailed! The Tree of Liberty has been watered. The Free Enterprise system has scored a smashing victory against those Creeping Socialists who wanted to regulate the Internet.
Long live the Internet! Well, for now, anyway — until our monthly rates go into the stratosphere while the service plunges south. Or maybe you’ll have the choice of either paying through the wazoo for the same service you’re getting now, or not paying the new exorbitant fees and being relegated to the slow lane. Dial-up speed at broadband prices.
But hey — We’re Free!!!
The FCC was smacked down earlier today by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia. The American people don’t want none of that there Socialized Internet Service, thank you very much.
The Federal Communist Conspiracy had two goals, and they both went against everything our Founding Fathers stood for:
1. Net Neutrality. This was just a government power grab; an excuse for faceless bureaucrats to socialize the Internet.
2. Expanding broadband service to poor and rural areas throughout America. Let those parasites get their own broadband service.
Two years ago Comcast filed a lawsuit against this government takeover, and now the Court of Appeals has ruled in their favor.
FCC Chairman Julius Genachowski — now there’s a Communist-sounding name if I ever heard one — might appeal the ruling to the Supreme Court. Or he might ask Congress to provide additional authority to the FCC.
In the meantime, enjoy your Freedom.
