The death of net neutrality is imminent, all thanks to Trump's lackey Ajit Pai who is in charge of the FCC. Thanks to Lackey, the FCC is literally doing the opposite of what it should be doing and companies like Comcast and the rest of the major media distributors are running the FCC. Due to Pai, watch your internet bills triple. If you're still using cable, watch your cable bills go up after they just allowed major media broadcasting mergers to go through. Pai is literally an enemy of the American public's wallet.
The death of net neutrality is going to absolutely infuriate millions of Americans and it could backfire stupendously for the GOP. This is what is coming to your pocketbook:
We shall see. I have a theory they are going to increase internet rates but with cord cutting, I doubt the cable end will go up as much and will rise by whatever ESPN and Fox Sports demand in their next extortion contract for sports.
Comcast owns NBC, and MSNBC, both progressive propaganda outlets. Their CEO Brian Roberts, and their top executives are huge, progressive Democrats, and Democrat donors, financiers, and bundlers. Look it up. They HATE Trump, and anything GOP.

Yep, its ALL Trump's FAULT!
This helps to explain why there is so much bias in the media...
Sure. We are going the way of Portugal and this is what consumers in Portugal ALREADY have to deal with because they don't have net neutrality protection:

You want to hog bandwidth? Pay for it sucker. I don't care one bit if they did that. I'm not addicted to the internet like many millennials are. In reality, it won't happen. One company might try it but even with NN, a company can still tier their services and charge more for big users but others will see an opportunity to offer more and take their customers. Look at cell phones. They had a cap even with NN in place.

If you weren't so obtuse, you'd realize it isn't just about hogging bandwidth to play video games and watch Netflix. The internet is vital to the creation of many new small businesses that provide jobs. If larger competition feels threatened by you they could pay ISPs to slow internet traffic down to your website in order to make it virtually unusable.
Yes!!! The internet providers are trash, they never advertise the “regular rate”. They give you a promo rate for a year than your bill shoots up $40. I’m paying $80 for just internet. I just called them to complain and they said the regular rate is $70 so why am I being charged $80 yet why isn’t $70 stares anywhere?
Only one provider offered in my area right now. Same with electrity being con ed, I am being scammed
This is why the GOP are giving tax cuts. So you can pay for your higher wifi bills.
This is a direct result of Trump and his pick. Obama was against these policies--he was truly for the average American.
Trump has no idea how to help average families, how his policies affect the COL, and could not care less how much the average Joe pays for broadband. He has no clue. Those who thought a guy who ripped off others to get rich would help average Americans are total suckers.
