OUR ENEMY GOV'T: Want to make the Internet slow, unresponsive, expensive and heavily taxed? Have it becomes a public utility, you’ll pay more.

This is the dark soul of Obama! Goddam gangster government! Isn't the intent working just fine without it? m/r

If the Internet becomes a public utility, you’ll pay more. Here’s why.


By Grover G. Norquist and Patrick Gleason 1-5-15

The Federal Communications Commission is in the middle of a high-stakes decision that could raise taxes for close to 90 percent of Americans. The commission is considering whether to reclassify broadband as a telecommunications service and, in doing so, Washington would trigger new taxes and fees at the state and local level.
The agency would like to make Internet service a public utility, placing broadband under Title II regulation of the Communications Act of 1934. This move would make broadband subject to New Deal-era regulation, and have significant consequences for U.S. taxpayers.
Under this decision to reclassify broadband, Americans would face a host of new state and local taxes and fees that apply to public utilities. These new levies, according to the Progressive Policy Institute (PPI), would total $15 billion annually. On average, consumers would pay an additional $67 for landline broadband, and $72 for mobile broadband each year, according to PPI’s calculations, with charges varying from state to state.
