Leave it alone!!!

I use the internet to stay in contact with my family.
I use it for banking.
I use it for finding info when needed.
I use it for purchasing products. Which is definitely helping America's economy because it's products that I would have not bought due to my confinement to my home. The internet allows me to shop at home!

Why does the government want to (govern) the internet anyway? If they interfere with the way I use the internet, It would surely hurt the economy! I spend over $10,000+ a year on purchases over the internet not to mention $600 per yr for internet access. And if I have probs accessing certain sites? Instead of spending $50 per month for internet access, I would cancel my EarthLink prescription and go back to doing things the old way. Which would be a good thing for my bank account but it would hurt our economy!

So go ahead "Uncle SAM". Mess it up! See what happens to your economy!
