My Position: Freedom Used Liberaly

In 2009, John McCain, the 2009 presidential campain republican forerunner, introduced a bill into senate that was entitled, the Internet Freedom Act. This bill was do disolve the internets neutrality. This means little to most people, however should it be passed it would effect most of the united states population.
This republican senator from arizona suggested a bill that would allow companies like comcast charge for different amounts of money for different internet sites, should you use their internet services. It would allow the various internet providers to do to the internet what direct TV, Cable, and Comcast has done to TV. The best example is with Comcast; you pay for a package that includes channels x,y, and z. However should you want to watch channel a, b, and c, you must pay for an upgrade in packages, or pay individually to use those channels. This concept has been suggested to be transposed onto the internet. Saying that you can pick a number of internet "channels," and you can visit those for free, however should you want to use another, you have to pay extra.
Whats my position? I'm glad you asked. This proposal should never have even been printed out for the senate. This is the land of the free and the internet has kept this a reality, allowing people to have free reign of where they go, what they see, who they talk to, and so on and so forth. By putting limitations onto the internet, like the ones suggested by senator McCain, you do not "free,' the internet. Rather the opposite, these are limits, not freedoms that would be added to the internet. These are freedoms for organizations that want more money in this stuggling economy, and at the cost of the average American. The thought that a presidential campaign forerunner should champion a bill like this suggest that he has accepted money, or he is totally ignorant. The second is more likely as he chose govenor Palin as his running mate int the 2009 election race. To propose a bill like this is to put a limit on the freedom that America claims to uphold.
