are the problem. If "net neutrality" is left to the unregulated capitalist system it will devolve into two or three companies controlling access to the entire internet. With no need to compete in order to reap billions, they will become lazy, poorly run outfits providing poorer service, higher prices, and even worse customer non-service. Eventually taxpayers will held hostage to "too big to fail" internet companies pulling an AIG/Goldman Sachs on us, wanting government bail-outs while they give their corporate officers million dollar bonuses. It's not like we haven't seen it happen before.
