Internet Regulation and Entrepreneurial Freedom

• "The Internet is the great equalizer when it comes to jobs and opportunity." (WPOPED)
• "We must promote growth in the technological sector, a consistent bright spot for the U.S. economy. But we won’t realize more of that dynamic growth unless we keep the Internet free from the kind of unnecessary regulation that is strangling our health-care, energy and banking industries... one of the biggest regulatory threats to the Internet is “net neutrality.” In short, net neutrality is Obamacare for the Internet." (WPOPED)
• Opposes net neutrality on the basis it stifles innovation (WPOPED)

Quotes

• “One of biggest lies in politics is the lie that Republicans are the party of big business. Big business does great with big government. Big business is very happy to climb in bed with big government. Republicans are and should be the party of small business and of entrepreneurs.” (TH)
