You are here A must-read economists' joint statement on Net Neutrality

I sincerely hope that everyone who cares substantively about the net neutrality issue, on either side of the debate, reads the new 2-1/2 page "Economists' Statement on Network Neutrality Policy" by the AEI-Brookings oint Center for Regulatory Studies.
- This joint statement is a brief and easy read, and is among the clearest, most reasonable, and value-added statements I have seen on the subject.
- It should not be surprising then that it is written jointly by some of the best and most respected regulatory economists in the country.
We are still waiting to read a cogent, well-reasoned and supported piece of work that supports the policy of Net neutrality. All we have gotten is assertions, hypotheticals --virtually no facts or analysis from the other side.
-
If their argument had merit, why aren't there any good pieces of work supporting net neutrality?
-
It is becoming increasingly clear that there simply is no there there.
