    He should be so lucky. You, on the other hand, are trying to be YF, but you aren't even particularly good at that.

    I posted a link to a blogger who cited to three different papers. One of those papers was from a think tank that analyzed what happened in response to prior regulatory action. That was the only paper you addressed, and all you could muster in response was that you don’t like the think tank. (Nice shot at the “libertarian” blogger, too. Apparently you’re completely incapable of responding to any arguments without attacking the motives of the author.)

    In support of your position, on the other hand, you’ve pointed me to what you “feel.”

    Give it up @lcjjdnh ... saints can’t be bothered with evidence.

    I’m open to all evidence, but I’ve seen none and now I’m not sure either one of you knows what “evidence” means.

    Am I allowed to find some links to people whose theories on net neutrality align with mine and call them “evidence” that I’m right?

    Also, why is it a “shot” at a libertarian blogger when I call him a libertarian blogger? Is that something about which he should be ashamed?

    Every night I bow my head and say, “Lord, make me as holy as @cranberry .”

    Yes. We get it. You say that a lot. First step would be to stop apologizing for Nazis.

    Godwin’s Law! In a net neutrality debate! Who’d a thunk it?

    Actually, a shallow, bitter old Dem is involved in the debate. It was inevitable.

    My money is on the Women/#MeToo. Since Trump didn't do anything and the accusers all lied, that can't possibly be taken as a dig at him.

    Disabled little girl arrested after surgery, getting away with sexual assault and being a pedophile who bought a beauty pageant so he could walk in on teenage girls dressing, literally selling out American foreign policy to help himself get elected, using the presidency to enrich himself through his properties, assaults on health care that will literally kill people, stoking a war with North Korea,, stoking racial tensions that directly cause violence, helping force through the oil pipeline that is already poisoning the land of the people who live there, leaving Puerto Rico with criminally insufficient post-disaster care because brown people, firing the FBI director in a blatant obstruction of justice, gutting the EPA and climate change regulations for no good reason other than triggering liberals.

    That's 10 things off the top of my head that have real, serious consequences, some of them deadly.

    Tax cuts and regulation changes that let the powerful squeeze the less so in the "free" market are almost refreshing in their ordinariness.
