Unlike my competition, who are worried about seeing the others tax returns. I will stick to the topics that are important to America. The next point on my agenda is Net Neutrality. The Internet has been one of the greatest breakthroughs in our lifetime. The flow of information has brought new ideas and interactivity like we have never seen. That is why it is important not to let the big communication companies tweak the system in anyway.
So what is Net Neutrality? Think of a major highway in your town. The speed limit on that highway is the same if your driving a BMW or a 1973 Pinto. That highway is for everyone to share equally. Some major corporations are wanting to create basically a "high rollers" lane of traffic. This is not someone paying for higher speed Internet at their house. That is you making a personal decision. What big communication companies are wanting to do is tell small web sites that they can't have the same access as the "high rollers" do.
Why is this important? With all major TV, radio, and newspapers outlets bought up by major media companies, the Internet is the only way to allow independent voices to be heard. Think of all of the blogs and alternative news sites out there giving us great content. Our Founding Fathers didn't give us free speech so we can watch The View or Dr. OZ. It was to express our views freely and interact with others on a higher plain of thought.
