| Can you say busted? We’re getting pushback, obviously, from some of the bigger carriers who would like to be able to charge more fees and extract more money from wealthier customers. But we think that runs counter to the whole spirit of openness that has made the Internet such a powerful engine for not only economic growth, but also for the generation of ideas and creativity
It's OK for Obama to tax more money from 'the rich' and he won't admit that it has a bad effect on the economy but someone else doing it is bad.

How is metered billing taxing the rich? It's a tax on the poor who can't afford business class connections or other high quality broadband connectivity without cap bullshit. |

Metered Billing impacts everyone with broadband, not just the rich. This is a spin that politicians have created to help influence the general public. Middle and Lower class voters, for the most part, seem perfectly okay with the rich paying more. |

Middle and Lower class voters, for the most part, seem perfectly okay with the rich paying more. Of course they are. And I'd be perfectly happy if the remainder of the 40% of the US population that doesn't pay federal income tax actually started contributing back to the trough. |
