Pro net neutrality is the good stance. It means no 'superhighway' tolling by the scum ISP's (like Comcast).

I should have been more clear. You would think an old retired English teacher could construct clearer sentences. These days I'm lucky if I don't have to spell check everything.

and 65 USD a pop is 2.407407407407 (407 ad infinitum) time larger than Bernie's infamous 27 USD

AND

407 is the EXACT number of EV's IF we max crush Trump in a perfect sweep of all the remotely close swing states plus Texas (an Abrams Pete or Pete Abrams ticket could do this IF Trump has a huge explosion from the hearings)
