Net neutrality repealed!

Then I would buy control for my district, and restrict sidewalk access to the other bakery by blocking the sidewalk in front of it. 

Then I would charge the other baker a fee to partially lift the block at certain times of the day, or perhaps on the weekend.

How would that other baker feel if the government stepped in with a policy of "sidewalk neutrality" and took control of that bit of infrastructure in the public interest. How would his customers feel?

There was no other bakery in my analogy (aka he doesn't have his own ISP) only yours; he was just selling pies in your bakery. You cannot make things up. 

So what would you do? 

But to answer your question: I'd feel great is the government made him let me sell pies in his bakery


EDIT to answer your EDIT: The bakery is the public access to the good.
