    “He stopped nine companies from providing discounted high-speed internet service to low-income individuals. He withdrew an effort to keep prison phone rates down, and he scrapped an effort to break open the cable box market,” the New York Times reported. A Wall Street industry analyst said, “The speed of the ruling and the chairman’s tone are very encouraging to internet service providers. I think it’s a down payment on [cutting] net neutrality, with much more to follow.”

    Pai didn’t need Senate confirmation, which is the case for the thousands of federal appointees each president makes. As Matt Wood, policy director for Free Press said, “The public wants an FCC that helps people.

    Instead, it got one that does favors for powerful corporations that its chairman used to work for..."

    Thanks for posting about this. The net neutrality issue is something that I'm sure millions of voters knew absolutely nothing about and they'll wonder what hit them when more of this kind of "reform" takes place. I was already getting flyers last year from the provider about new packages that promise faster connections...for a price. I can see them creating a class system of internet users and us peons will have to dig deeper and deeper to log on.

    If you can use "regressive" to describe people who think women should be treated like human beings but refuse to condemn actions that jeopardize minorities and the environment, liberals don't want you.

    Is Bowling Green the center of the Lizard People or something?

    They are not "Women"!
    Get it right! They are "hosts".

    Yes, described as such by Republicans.

    Trump's aides don't want to admit the President is golfing

    What's another euphemism for golfing? Small balls delegation? Course correction? Greens Conference?

    Being a better President than when he's signing bills?

    I certainly that applies to every voter that neglected to vote at all, as opposed to blaming non-voting strictly on a given candidate.

    You have no way of knowing if Sanders would have won, so you have no real argument that proves that he should have been the nominee.

    Conversely, 3rd party votes helped put Trump in office, so -- yeah -- you do share responsibility for that as one of the "never Hillary" crowd, even though you will never admit it.
    Same question: is *everyone* who didn't vote responsible for not having voted, regardless of what Hillary did or didn't do?
