The federal government needs revenue in any way they could get it, raise taxes, whatever... since odumbo took office, the private sector lost another 2,654,000 jobs, but the government created 499,000 new jobs to their payroll, and at a much higher earnings rate than that same job in the private sector... pretty soon this country will be bankrupt trying to pay federal employees with less and less private sector people to pay those taxes...

That's a lot of words to simply say that "net neutrality" means that you can use the internet to make phone calls using your hardware device of choice (cell phone, land line phone) instead of using some other phone call provider like Sprint, AT&T T-Mobile, etc. which would result probably in a dramatic drop in demand ofr services like T-Mobile and AT&T for voice communications. This is what this article should REALLY be talking about and it isn't just this article that has this basic problem, I have yet to see a good article on the subject that describes how you would be able to use your computer and cell phone together to call people and get around paying for each text message and weekend and weekday minute limits contracts with early terminations fees and the rest of it. Voice and text takes up nearly 0 bandwidth compares to data and everybody with a cell phone is being ripped off to the the max. 30 cents for a text message? A dollar a minute if you go over your minutes? Total rip off scam, bullshit.
