Net Neutrality: Big Government's latest scheme

Do you know what "Net Neutrality" is? It sounds nice, like it might be a good idea, right?

What the legislation will do, is to make the internet into a public utility that is taxed and regulated. You see, the internet has become a major carrier of information that you and I want to share. It carries our mail orders, our birthday messages, our news, and our private conversations. It amounts to a 21st century form of free speech like chatting over the backyard fence or at the hardware store. I'm real sure I don't want the government managing my communications anymore than they do already. They manage the US Postal Service and regulate our telephone bills. Both have seen steep increases in recent years. Who will this hurt? The middle class American. Why do we need another area of our lives managed by Big Brother? We don't. This is not something viewed as an urgent issue by the people. We are happy with the way things are. But there is too much money and control available because if the use of the internet. So, the government, always looking for another way into our pocket, sees an opportunity. So far, with this administration, the only thing that gets their attention (most of the time) is a massive outcry from the people. Make your voices heard before you lose another freedom or pay dearly for the right to exercise it. Jennie Veary
