In choosing a corporate shill like Pai, I think Trump...
Don't you mean the last administration? Pai has been with the FCC since 2011.

Leave the regulation in place, or at least put some serious conditions and stimuli for new broadband investments if you're going to repeal NN.
You mean government regulation that does nothing to the big players? The government still has failed to go after Comcast after they violated the terms of the Comcast - NBCUniversal merger. Or what about the millions of dollars given to Verizon to expand their FiOS network and have yet to make good on that.
Crying more government regulation does not help if the government picks and chooses who it will go after and when. If anything, the FTC (Federal Trade Commission) should be where "Net Neutrality" should be enforced since this would be an issue of failing to provide a good or service.
Edit: Missing word.

- bobcallme 9y agoWas this not going to happen anyway (next one in the chain)? Many appointments require some sort of recommendation by someone already in power...
