What doesn't flow is your libertarian-utopian notion of free and efficient market solving any and all problems. Meanwhile, you are all too willing to slash and burn old system to the ground. Without first having alternative working.

We jumping out of the plane, and now you are declaring that parachute we have is not the optimal kind. Guess what, it sorta works and before we have better parachute in our hands it might not be a good idea to throw old one away.

Lets say Net Neutrality, how things work today, gets severely undermined. We _know_ things will turn to shit, your argument that they already shitty-ish does not change the fact that they will get worse without NN.

Meanwhile, your free market solution might never realize itself. It might be that duopolies are 'natural' and actually require government intervention to get competition going. It might be that there isn't much money to be made serving some rural markets, so without government distortions dialup is all these markets will ever get. There are just so many scenarios where it doesn't work out.
