[AFMUG] Obama just threw Tom Wheeler under the bus
Obama just told T-Tommy that his plan stinks. Since Tommy was funded by all his friends in the Telcom industry, he must be handling a whole bunch of phone calls today to try and figure out what to do. Comcast and Verizon, some of Obama's biggest supports, have got to be fuming. This is what happens when you serve too many masters. http://www.theguardian.com/technology/2014/nov/10/cable-companies-obama- net-neutrality-proposals-fcc-fight Rory Conaway Triad Wireless 4226 S. 37th Street Phoenix, Az. 85040 602-426-0542 r...@triadwireless.net www.triadwireless.net
Re: [AFMUG] Obama just threw Tom Wheeler under the bus
I really wish I would stop reading comments, but they're kinda like a train wreck. It amazes me how short sighted people are in thinking this kind of regulation is going to be a good thing for them. The only thing I can see it doing is burdening the small guys out of business, decreasing competition and very likely raising the cost of service.

The Administration can’t decide how to regulate fast lanes. Congress can’t decide whether to allow taxes on the Internet*. They could kill two birds with one stone ... tax fast lanes! Why regulate something when you can tax it? 100% sin tax on paid prioritization. *actually some Senators want to link it with collecting sales tax on Internet sales From: Jason McKemie via Af Sent: Monday, November 10, 2014 6:03 PM To: af@afmug.com Subject: Re: [AFMUG] Obama just threw Tom Wheeler under the bus I really wish I would stop reading comments, but they're kinda like a train wreck.

Re: [AFMUG] Obama just threw Tom Wheeler under the bus
Wheeler had a plan that met with the approval of all of his past and future clients but Obama must have missed that meeting which might be a good thing. Regulation though, not a good thing. They should pass a law like the separation of church and state, the separation of the government and internet. No tax money, no regulation, just let the private industry make money and see what happens. Now I’m going to go take my medicine so the voices in my head quiet down.
