You want the real answer why Net Neutrality is a big deal? Why it's crony capitalism? See below.

Well...here's a clue for you: This is why FOR-PROFIT businesses are in business in the first place-- to make as much money as the market can bear. But once a company steps over that line of tolerance, consumers will react unkindly, and this will have an adverse effect on the corporation's bottom line.

Of course, you have another avenue open to you: You could lobby your congress critters to take over the Telecom industry the way Obama did with Healthcare which is one-sixth of the U.S. economy. See how that works out for ya.

Or you could join a bunch of snowflakes to lobby congress to subsidize you to help out with those "obscene" telecom fees.
