One of the key arguments put forward by the broadband industry in opposing federal regulation is that it would cause an enormous economic fallout. Aggressive oversight, Internet service providers argue, would raise costs for consumers and force telecom companies to stop investing in their networks. They wouldn't be able to offer new services or faster speeds.
In plain English, this roughly boils down to: "Leave us alone, or the average American gets hurt."
