You dont have to join the union just because the unions organizes there, however typically there is a vote that needs a majority of the members to vote yes before the union can setup shop, read about the VW plant in Tennessee.
If the court said it would have to be CLASSIFIED as a title 2 you would have a point, but it said they would have to reclassify it. That is an apples an oranges comparison to your analogy. It is like telling congress they would have to change law. It implies they have the authority to do something.
Intention and law to do something are 2 different matters. Congress never envisioned software patents in patent law, but apparently the law covers it. Just because congress did not intend for the internet to be covered does not mean the laws do not allow them to be covered. Intent rarely matters.
It is not just about netflix, it is actually not about them at all. The ISPs have bee caught throttling competing services, such as VOIP in the past and want to keep doing it. They also want to charge for access to me, their paying customer. This is wrong. The FCC tried to fix this without title 2 but verizon stopped that, well you reap what you sow.

Late last week, as the window for public comment was closing, EFF filed a letter with the FCC urging it to clarify and sharply limit the scope of any “general conduct” provision:
So the comcast and TWC trials of limited broadband was all in my head?
Only if the market will bear it. If it will not and they still make a profit then the prices will not go up, since prices going up decreases demand, and decrease in demand will cause a larger lose in profits.
you mean the key rules, or the actual regulation? We could see the rules, they were on the website.
You are talking about the equipment on the endpoints. The fiber itself does not have that limit.
