FCC's Net Neutrality Order 'Going To Create Massive Problems,' Fiorina Says

GOP presidential contender Carly Fiorina slammed the FCC’s net neutrality order Wednesday during a debate among Republican candidates. “Government causes a problem, and then government steps in to solve the problem,” said Fiorina, former CEO at Hewlett-Packard and a former AT&T executive. “This is why, fundamentally, we have to take our government back. … Government trying to level the playing field between Internet and brick-and-mortar creates a problem. The FCC jumping in now and saying ‘we’re going to put 400 pages of regulation over the Internet’ is going to create massive problems. But guess who pushed for that regulation? The big Internet companies. This is what’s going on. Big and powerful use big and powerful government to their advantage.”
