Dear Sir or Madam, 
        Over the course of my many years of study as a young college student, I continually use the Internet to complete online labs, research projects, and use the Internet to expand my education through online courses. However, all of this is now at great risk of ending. 
        I, like the vast fifty-one percent of Americans, am below the poverty line. I struggle daily to work a part time job, in addition to school, in order to earn just enough for rent, utilities, and food. I live off of twenty dollars a week, in order to pay for college with as little debt as possible and I, like the other forty five million Americans below the poverty line, cannot afford to pay any extra for internet if Net Neutrality were demolished. 
If Net Neutrality ended, the internet would become open for internet providers to rack up prices, charging unaffordable rates for a mediocre loading speed. Due to my financial circumstances, I would be stuck with the only affordable option, the slowest internet rate that would load one word at a time. This would render me unable to complete my degree due to the slow internet rate doubling the time needed for college essays, online research, and any online courses that I work tirelessly to complete between night shifts. In addition, many of the organizations that I use to educate myself through online resources are non-profit, meaning that these organizations would be unable to afford even a semi-decent internet speed if Net Neutrality were demolished. Organizations, such as Khan Academy, which help educate millions of people worldwide, would be hindered useless, as their web pages would be painstakingly slow to load. Many individuals, instead of waiting hours for these web pages to load, would then choose significantly faster web-pages over educational resources, pages that are funded by a continual market: video games, social media, movies, porn. We need educated citizens. We need an educated democracy. For the sake of our nation's education, for the sake of the forty five million Americans who cannot afford the absence of Net Neutrality, and for my education, please, vote to keep Net Neutrality.
