Wasting Time With Alex

We are gonna control the flow of information no matter what.
Seems the collectivists in DC were not too happy with the SCOTUS telling them the FCC did not have the authority to regulate the internet, and so they have decided that since the internet is destroying their monopoly on what’s news and what isn’t, ruining their control of the narrative, and actually giving voice to other people that point out how evil they are, that the best recourse is to ignore the SCOTUS and go around their decision:
A federal appeals court ruled last month that the Federal Communications Commission lacks the authority to regulate the Internet. No worries, mate. This week the Obama Administration chose to “reclassify” the Internet so it can regulate the Web anyway. This crowd is nothing if not legally creative.
For the past decade, broadband has been classified as an “information service” and thus more lightly regulated than traditional telephone services. This has led to an explosion of new investment and Web innovation, but it hasn’t sat well with Democrats who want more control over the telecom business, as well as with some Web companies (Google) that want more leverage over Internet service providers like Time Warner or Verizon.
So these collectivist crooks are changing the rules of the game to help out their corporate buddies and increase their own power and regulation. Funny that huh? But people still pretend the “evil corporations” and Wall Street are the bad guys. Again, we have the left rigging the game in their and their friends favor. There is a reason big businesses give the largest amount of money to demcorats: they are all for sale.
We should be worried…
