Imagine you are in a town with two pizza places — Domino’s and Papa John’s — and one phone company, AT\u0026amp;T. In a normally functioning free market, if you want to order pizza you are likely to call whichever pizza place that tastes best to you or has the best bang for your buck. But let’s say AT\u0026amp;T and Domino’s cut a special deal where any calls to Domino’s are favored over the calls going to other pizza places. So anyone calling Papa John’s has to wait behind everyone else calling Domino’s. For most people even if you might think Papa John’s tastes better, you know you will get your pizza faster if you choose Domino’s.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eWorse, let’s say AT\u0026amp;T acquired Domino’s and profits directly from Domino’s profits.

We doubt any new pizza shops are going to set up shop near you if they know they are facing this kind of unfair treatment from the established big guys. So, here we have fewer choices and higher prices for everyone involved. The strong net neutrality rules currently on the books prevent big providers like AT\u0026amp;T, Verizon, and Comcast from favoring one pizza chain — or in the case of internet, content creator — over another. It means all traffic and content travels over your connection at an equal pace. This means more entrants to the market, more reasons for people to continue making their services better, and happier customers, whether they prefer Domino’s or something else.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eAnd now imagine that instead of delicious pizza we are talking about access to healthcare, the ability to open competitive businesses, launch your own app, to apply for jobs and for your kids to do their homework.

It’s still very fresh in our minds what the Great Recession was. Your home — it’s where you live, but it’s also a long-term investment.”\u003c/p\u003e\n","link":"http://www.marketplace.org/2017/07/05/economy/tight-inventory-slows-housing-market-down-0","pubDate":"2017-07-05T06:25:38","lastMod":"2017-07-11T05:54:40","freeform_content":null,"audio":{"url":"http://play.publicradio.org/edit/d/podcast/marketplace/segments/2017/07/05/mp_20170705_seg_05_64.mp3","nid":"163061","fid":"312188","type":"audio/mpeg","length":1437856},"audioid":"/marketplace/segments/2017/07/05/mp_20170705_seg_05_64.mp3","slug":"2017/07/05/economy/tight-inventory-slows-housing-market-down-0","primary_image":{"xlarge":{"image":"https://cms.marketplace.org/sites/default/files/styles/primary-image-1800x1000/public/vancouver.jpg?itok=Q-2DrNXW","fid":"312183","title":null,"caption":"New entry-level homes for sale in a development by Pahlisch Homes in Vancouver, Washington.","credit":"Mitchell Hartman/Marketplace"},"large":{"image":"https://cms.marketplace.org/sites/default/files/styles/primary-image-900x500/public/vancouver.jpg?itok=e-k0GUDv","fid":"312183","title":null,"caption":"New entry-level homes for sale in a development by Pahlisch Homes in Vancouver, Washington.","credit":"Mitchell Hartman/Marketplace"},"small":{"image":"https://cms.marketplace.org/sites/default/files/styles/primary-image-610x340/public/vancouver.jpg?itok=aUfEWAVH","fid":"312183","title":null,"caption":"New entry-level homes for sale in a development by Pahlisch Homes in Vancouver, Washington.","credit":"Mitchell Hartman/Marketplace"},"mprnews":{"image":"https://cms.marketplace.org/sites/default/files/styles/primary-image-400x222/public/vancouver.jpg?itok=nqy_xRm3","fid":"312183","title":null,"caption":"New entry-level homes for sale in a development by Pahlisch Homes in Vancouver, Washington.","credit":"Mitchell Hartman/Marketplace"}},"show":"07/05/2017: Volvo says the combustion engine is a thing of the past","root_show":"Marketplace Morning Report ","show_id":"57","show_slug":"/shows/marketplace-morning-report","respond":"no","respond_question":null,"respond_type":null,"topics":{"topic":"Economy"},"collections":[],"authors":{"author":"Mitchell Hartman"},"full_authors":[{"name":"Mitchell Hartman","job-title":"Senior Reporter","bio":"\u003cp\u003eMitchell Hartman is the senior reporter for \u003cem\u003eMarketplace\u003c/em\u003e’s Entrepreneurship Desk and also covers employment.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA veteran \u003cem\u003eMarketplace\u003c/em\u003e reporter, he was hired in 1994 as an assistant producer on the \u003cem\u003eMarketplace Morning Report\u003c/em\u003e, hosted that program in 1996 and 1997 and then served as commentary editor and features editor for all \u003cem\u003eMarketplace\u003c/em\u003e productions.
