Obama Admin Threatens VETO to Sustain Fascistic Net-Regs

What's interesting about this move is two-fold. First, it is the FCC that imposed these regulations, which are unconstitutional not only in that it is an extra-Congressional body doing it, but also in that Congress doesn't even have the power to regulate the net! So, you have an unconstitutional regulatory agency establishing unconstitutional rules to force ISPs and internet providers to have to conform to federal rules rather than market rules, then a number of Congressman feel that they are forced to have to pass a law to stop it. They pass the law (remember, a LAW to stop a REGULATION) and then the Prez threatens to VETO the law in order to keep the REGULATION in place!

 

Welcome to Bizarro World, Superman.

 

The second salient aspect to this shizzle, in addition to the strange Congressional/Prez veto controversy is the way the author portrays the FCC move -- as if it's some kind of salvation for internet "freedom" when it is the exact opposite! It is FCC CONTROL of market processes!

 

Wow.

 

Take a look, and try to avoid the box filled with dumb tweets by dumb statists also located on the page.
