I don’t think this should surprise anyone…these are the same Democrats Clinton ushered in…they driven by all of their lobbyists and corporate interests.

Is anything still safe from the clutches of Greed and Corruption?

Although, it is really no surprise that those who stand in the midst of a transformation that leaves their old telecom business models shattered, and will fight for every dime and acre, I think there is something positive to note in the reality of the thing.

It is inevitable that every time a restriction is placed on the free flow of info – even if it takes years or decades – eventually people will find a way to get what they want, making the restrictions useless, and thus companies will relax a bit. This pattern is as clear as day. Time brings on more access, overall, not less. Technology and the basic human need for information will prevail, that is, if history is a worthy judge.

The dynamics are quite different in China, but there in an instructive parallel nonetheless. Their Great Firewall restricts a variety of content, like on Tienanmen Square. However, with a simple download, one can break through the wall. No doubt the gov will counter. But then so will the INEVITABLE WILL of the people to get the data they seek. This process has made more content accessible in China over the years. Progress may be quite slow, for most people, but it still represents forward motion.

Unless we enter a Police State where the gov runs all media and we revoke the first amendment here in the US – info on the web will be the water, and legislative restrictions the rock.

Despite the fact that human beings never fail to grossly disappoint me, in this phenomenon I find solace.

People have to learn to stop voting for the politicians that are bought off in this way. When you see a politician on TV, you see a bought politician. Only the politicians with all the corporate money in their coffers can afford all those ads. Or, if you see a politician getting free coverage on corporate TV, you know that politician supports the corporate owners of that TV channel.

What amazes me is how people line up to vote Democrat, even though all the Democrats are bought off by corporate America, then they expect the Democrats to provide ‘change’. What nonsense.

The politicians that will represent us are the broke ones that can’t afford ads, that are laughed at by the corporate TV channels, and who need to catch a ride from their supporters to get to their next event. That’s the politician who isn’t bought off.

We need to learn to laugh at and NEVER trust the politicians on TV. Those are all bought off, and they’ll never be on our side.

2010, we get a chance to throw all these bums out. Don’t vote Democrat, and don’t vote Republican. Both are corporate servants. Elect somebody else!

Wow, did not expect that to have happened… makes the game a bit more interesting, huh?

Don’t worry about it, as long as Google is in the video game, we will be able to get video online. Google has all the power needed to deliver us to their profits, whether it’s from lobbyists or becoming an ISP or whatever, they will keep the bottom line healthy.

It’s time to get the Democrat, Republican and Independent dinosaurs out of Congress. Blame the death of term limits on Newt Gingrich…he promised it…then backed down. I trust him as far as I can throw him…and I’m a Republican. Actually, I’m a moderate, and if Rush Limbaugh needs a definition of what a moderate is, I’d be happy to provide it. Yes, Rush, there really are moderates. And they way outnumber the Liberals and Conservatives in this country.

Stop this madness! These Marxist-lite concepts will crush American dynamism. We do not want the government deciding who does what with what bandwidth. Telling companies what they can or can’t do with fiber that they bought and installed is so Chinese or USSR!

Net neutrality is silly, what benefit does a internet provider have in alienating its customer base? How long would you stay with an ISP that doesn’t let you go or do what you want on the internet?

Let the market do its work and let these nutty Marxist ideas die a quick painful death!

I always knew Obama supporters would be dissatisfied by how much differently he would govern from the way he campaigned, I just did not think it would happen so quickly!

I read the comments here and I am saddened. Yesterday thousands of Americans who really believe the same thing were out in force to express their feelings about the Government and overall corruption in General. It wasn’t about the Democrats, and it wasn’t about the Republicans. Had the news agencies shown the crowds, and their signs, most would know and understand.

But News Agencies are so wrapped up in their support of “their” own parties, that it turns into being more a battle of words by the news anchors, and not what the substance of the subject was about.

Most of the Cable News networks attacked the people for protesting, when really the one they were attacking was Fox News. They have done a huge disservice to the country and the people by not showing what the REAL message was about.

People who didn’t take part or understand what this was about, have missed a huge opportunity to have the voice that is needed to change things the way you want them.

People in general are angry that politicians are so corrupt with greed, and are being controlled by their own special interests.
Yesterdays protests were about Bad Governing in general, it was about BOTH parties being corrupt. But that was missed by most, because they are fed a one sided view by the News Media.

How very sad that so many people missed a good opportunity to stand up and be heard. Hundreds of thousands, were heard however. Good for them for standing up to those who are ruining this country.
