Re: Public utilities should stay out of private competition

'How is it that the U.S. have the slowest broadband access compared to the rest of the developed countries?'

Because of artificial gov't intervention.

If America wanted to be the number one auto-producer we could be with the gov't mandating cars be made and subsidizing the cost. Hell, China became a major steel producer briefly during the Great Leap Forward. But the growth was artificial and unhealthy. It was also wasteful and counterproductive and ultimately fell flat once it reached a level of effort that could not be sustained.

Americans have the broadband they're willing to pay for.
