The man with the “very good brain” goofed.
Ohio, meet President Dumbass.
The same dumbass that started the trade war with China that’s hurting your farmers.
No more Republican dumbasses, vote for Danny O'Connor in the midterms!
Bad news on the Net Neutrality front for Ohio, Congressmen Steve Stivers just emailed me and....he is for the eradication of the FCC protections. He prefers a “hands-off” approach to regulating the Internet (in other words: No regulation at all or regulation so weak that corrupt corporations can walk all over us)
In his sleazy politi-speak, he told me that telecoms won’t do anything bad as the Federal Trade Commission and Congress will “take care” of consumers by wagging their fingers at the likes of AT&T for hidden fees and charges to sites (translation: AT&T and the like gave me large briefcases of money to pretend I care, then ignore you).
He also claims FCC Chairman Pai is a wonderful person who just wants more transparency and disclosure from the companies that provide the services.
The newly empowered FTC will handle incidents on a case by case basis (so slowly and with a lot of bureaucracy while telecoms get away scott free throttling my service, killing my connection and placing hidden fees in my bills).
He does mention that he is working with Congress to bolster net neutrality by making bills that will limit the powers of telecoms designed for the FTC (Lobbying corporate bribes can and will kill that idea or he’s just doing doublespeak to throw me off guard)
I am severely disappointed, but undeterred. Also, Mr. Stivers, congratulations. You won’t have a job once another election comes around that permits me and other concerned voters to remove you for attempting to destroy the free and open Internet.
Rep. Steve Stivers (R-Ohio), who currently chairs the National Republican Congressional Committee, sat down with CNBC’s John Harwood, who asked the Ohio Republican about the fact that the deficit is soaring in the wake of his party’s tax breaks.
Predictably, the congressman responded to the issue the way GOP lawmakers nearly always respond to the issue.
Harwood: No misgivings about a tax cut that was not paid for, that’s allowing debt and deficits to rise like it is now?
Stivers: I do think we need to deal with our some of our spending. We’ve got to try to figure out how to spend less.

Rep. Paul Ryan’s plan would likely drive healthier, younger and wealthier seniors toward private insurance. Poorer and sicker seniors would remain in traditional Medicare, driving up costs until the program collapsed under its own weight.

Members of Congress who whine petulantly, impudently, and perpetually about having to personally endure metal detectors and waiting in line to cast their vote are so out of touch with reality of their constituents that they have no business representing anyone.
