Net neutrality

Markey's top contributor in the current campaign cylce is Time Warner...opposed to net neutrality.

Among his top industry contributors are the telephone utilities....also generally opposed to net neutrality, at least the big guys - ATT, Verizon, Bell South.... (and a little farther down on the list, music tv/movie/music industry that are generally more supportive of limiting legal fire sharing than they are net neutrality.)

Sorry guys, I understand your cynicism, but based on personal experience, I just dont agree with it.

Oh..and I thought we de-bunked the myth of "thousand page" bills.

In this case, the McCain bill is less than one page and the Markey bill is maybe 5 pages.
