Oh alrighty allow me to retort....you're laying the argument before us that the Internet is already regulated to an extent and has been from day one. Well SIR if that's the case then why is more regulation needed? Secondly, if you're asking consumers to choose between who they want to provide a service to them ISP's or The Government who the holy fuck do you think the average person would pick to run things? THE ISP's why? Because they are easily held accountable for their bullshit via the power of the purse AND so long as there is not 1 single ISP competition will drive low costs and better service.....has the government ever EVER done that?
