The premise of net neutrality is that the internet is a limited resource. The physical space required for building infrastructure is limited, effectively making the internet a limited resource as well. Most cities have already leased out the space for building networks, or let companies own the poles and conduits outright.
This is why i took issue with his car showroom example. Its a big difference when there are plenty of places to build a showroom. There's only one easement behind my house. The poles are owned by comcast, the ground has sewers.

The space on your roof for a satellite dish? Even if there was no other way to get an internet signal into your house, that still wouldn't justify violating Comcast's property rights.
