The US House of Representatives definitively rejected the concept of Net neutrality on Thursday, dealing a bitter blow to Internet companies like Amazon.com, eBay and Google that had engaged in a last-minute lobbying campaign to support it. By a 269-152 vote that fell largely along party lines, the House Republican leadership mustered enough votes to reject a Democrat-backed amendment that would have enshrined stiff Net neutrality regulations into federal law and prevented broadband providers from treating some Internet sites differently from others.

Not to mention the CEO's of these ISP's are Right Wing KOOKS. Give them the ability to put Left Wing blogs on the SLOW lane and that's just what they will do.
Just look at FOX "News".
Continuous LIES posted as news.
That's what you'll get on the internet.
