Instead of trying to provide broadband everywhere why don't they try to speed up what they have? The fastest speed available in the US is in RI and that is 5.0 mbps, here in Las Vegas it's about 3.5. Remember M.A.S.H, the Korean war series on tv, remember the Korean house boys dressed in rags, guess what their hi-speed broadband races at 45.5 and 92% of their households have it. S. Korea is 9x faster than any US state, Japan is the champ they zoom along at 61.0 mbps. To download a video in the US it takes about 4 hours, in Japan it takes 2 minutes. They get their hi-speed at about the same price as we do. I have hi-speed and when i click on a page it takes about 10 seconds for it to show up, it's a shame. 6 months ago i had dailup and it was just as fast and 5x cheaper. Hi speed is good for downloading videos, that's one good thing. Please speed it up.
