lol. I guess that I'm a righteous idiot then (ie. someone who might not agree with you).

Mostly, the point is that people choose their battles based on bias or their own needs, not some sort of overall logic.

I can understand the argument over the various sorts of non-neutrality. A need to bring together cable tv and internet pricing and bandwidth needs, the opportunity to break out fixed and variable pricing on bytes moved, etc. The main point is that it simply isn't as simple as waving a sign around and getting out the vote.

Heck, we might as well all get worked up about the fact that the USPS allows you to buy 1 day shipping or that the shipping companies cut special deals with large customers. Another example is toll roads.

The world is a complicated place and doesn't succumb well to slogans.
