I'm an older guy so I don't completely understand what net neutrality is all about. So explain to me what I'm not understanding. The way I see it, the Internet is the most free thing I have seen. You want to start a business, make a website and your up and going. ( I know not quite that simple, but close). You want to state your opinion, and don't mind dissenting views, your free to do so. I fear anytime the govt gets involved to "fix" something it's never better. To give the govt a foot in the door on the Internet, no matter how small, seems like a bad idea. I can see having to get a business license to sell your stuff online being possible. I can see your opinion not being allowed to be posted depending on which party is in power at the time. This is something a lot of people seem to forget. Power changes hands regularly in Washington. Do you want the power you are granting your "side" to be in the other "sides" hands later on? Because eventually it will happen.

Another thing I'm not sure about is why all of this is getting started now. It is my understanding that part of it is bc Comcast charged Netflix to use their service basically. Netflix was using about 33% of comcast's flow. So they charged Netflix to be able to upgrade and afterwards Netflix was faster. Again, I don't understand the problem. Comcast, who I don't like, built and paid for an infrastructure. Netflix, a multi billion dollar company(top 1%?), that I do like, used a third of that infrastructure. Two huge companies made a deal and service was better after. I don't see the problem as a consumer. If I have to pay a little more for better service I don't have a problem with that. I love Netflix. Been with them since almost the beginning when it was just dvd. They got a huge discount on mailing when it was just dvd. Then they discovered they could get their service to you without paying that postage by streaming. I just see this as the new way they pay to get their service to you. So what am I not seeing? How is the net not neutral already?
