In view of all the political ‘hoo-hah’ nowadays, and in regard to the barrage of hypothetical situations and theoretical positions we, as Americans, find ourselves in; I would like to present a few hypothetical situations and theoretical positions of my own that are not, necessarily, backed by experts or scare tactics, but instead are backed by common sense.

If you have not noticed, I am not a publicity or advertisement oriented person. This site contains no links that I, personally, profit from and no advertisements. No, this blog is completely dedicated to personal thoughts on politics, religion, and life in general. However, something happened, this past week, that I cannot ignore.

We are all taught, at a young age, that avoiding a problem does not bring the problem to solvency. In most cases, unresolved problems do not go away or correct themselves.

For weeks, I have been trying to put to words together to express the sheer audacity of net neutrality and the proponents behind it, but I come up short. The claims of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) that it should have more regulatory control over the internet to “protect it’s freedom and openness” are ridiculous, at best. Regulation, by definition, removes freedoms and restricts open markets. Currently, the internet is the only place that is, fairly, free of the government regulations and interventions that have stifled the growth of small business.

So, what is this really all about?
