Barack has a stupid goal to put broadband in "every home". If he really means that we will be paying thousands for people living out in the boonies to have essentially a luxury item. I can understand concern about phone, electrical, road, or water infrastructure, but broadband internet is purely a luxury item for average home consumers. To top it off, a lot consumers don't even need broadband as all they do is surf the web and don't even bother to use online video. If it wasn't for the fact that I use Vonage and online TV I would drop broadband right away.
Considering the sheer size of the US, I don't see why people like to compare our infrastructure to much smaller countries that can more easily install new lines across the entire country. I mean should we really be shocked that Alaska has a horrible broadband infrastructure?
