This is one of many inevitable results of Marxist/Progressive/Liberal migration to both the U.S. and inter-state between blue and (formerly) red states. Marxists from blue states such as CA and OR move to more tax advantageous [read: Red] states to escape the onerous tax burdens, regulatory environments, ~ 2 generations of liberal indoctrination in the public schools and Political correctness run amok, and they bring their badly misguided progressive ideals with them. They soon outnumber the indigenous conservative population and proceed to elect the very same type of Marxist political leaders that implement the very same idiotic laws and regulations that they were fleeing in the first place. They recreate the very same untenable and unsupportable conditions in their new states. These Progressives worm their way into every facet of our lives and they ruin everything they touch. They are relentless and exhausting.

Fahq Kawasaki. He's a leftist puke. Yes. I believe that he grew up around Fairbanks, but has been a liberal Democrat for a long time.

If you like uninfringed internet access, you are pro net neutrality. Without it, the left can slow internet speeds to sites like this one as they wish.

FBKS didn't used to be overrun with liberals, but sadly it seems to be so these days.
I'm pretty certain when we sing our anthem and mention the land of the free, the original intent didn't mean cell phones, food stamps and birth control.

For all I know about liberals, there is nothing good about net neutrality. In fact, there was nothing wrong with it before Obama mandated it, and see how much the Internet grew before that. It's the same for radio where the liberal Democrats have been trying to change it to their liking. Do you really believe that having the government controlling anything is going to make the Internet better?

Can you give us an example or two of how the "left" slowed Internet speeds before Obama started the net neutrality in 2015? While ISP competition in Alaska is extremely low, we still have some choices. Around Fairbanks the major competitors, other than companies from the lower-48, are ACS and GCI. While GCI provides faster Internet speeds than ACS, the latter is cheaper and unlimited. So for watching Netflix movies and such, to me at least ACS is my favorite. Anyway, before 2015 the Internet was not broken, so it didn't need fixing. Let the consumer dictate what he or she wants, not the government. Another example of government at work is the DMV. I have the option to spend a couple of hour at the DMV office to register my car, or I can just go to one of several places in town and get it done within a few minutes for a $20.00 fee. In fact they even laminate the registration if I want. Yes, I can do it online, but then I have to wait several days to receive the registration on the mail.

I can't give examples, but that wasn't my point. My point was without net neutrality, big business can put their thumb on the scales of the market in their favor. Consumers have to pay more for the same options or give them up and smaller innovative business can't compete. Then there's the shady FCC's public comment debacle and it's easy to connect the dots. Repealing net neutrality is just one more way the donor class is paving the way back to feudalism.

In fact, before 2015 and Obama's net neutrality, the Internet grew to enormous proportions, and continued through. It makes no difference other than having "governments" controlling the private sector's actions, and probably even taxing Internet use. The way I see it, consumers decide what type of service to pay for without governments telling which providers you should choose. About big companies controlling services, it had not been that way up to 2015. Lets say that net neutrality is imposed on ACS and GCI: in this case, then those who watch movies from Netflix and others through ACS will have limited service, just like GCI already does. GCI just charges you extra once you have reached the limit, while ACS does not. The idea about net neutrality started and is being pushed by the liberal Democrats in Alaska (Begich, Mr. Kawasaki, and lately Princess Lisa-who may as well be a Democrat), which is enough reason for me not to like it.

Your last sentence is by far the most compelling argument!
