Equitable Internet access
Please support small business owners, like myself, to continue to have equal access to all Internet activity without additional costs. It is unconscionable to expect a tiered system for access based on speed of service.
Why is this important?
As a small business owner, I rely on the Internet for processing our interactions with insurance companies. I also use the Internet, as do my other therapists, to research disorders and support information related to our clients. I am already taxed to death for payroll, business taxes, and in Minnesota, a 2% additional tax on healthcare providers to fund Medicaid. I already pay Comcast for internet connection. I believe having discriminatory Internet access as proposed will be another cost that may drive me out of business in an already stressed business environment.
