| Re: Must be nice... said by Hazy Arc  :...considering I pay $40 a month for 3/684.  don't feel bad; they only have that because:
- japan has high population density
- japan meddles in business and actually passes regulations
- japan has a broadband plan for their country because they think it matters
- whatever other reasons the trolls give for why we don't have these speeds and prices
besides, as all the incumbents tell us, we don't need these speeds - it will only make you hit your cap faster - hahahahahahahahahahahahaha! | |

The telecommunications industry is heavily subsidized by taxes (much higher than the 15 or 28% most people here in the US pay)

| Re: Must be nice... said by BF69 :Well it helps not having fund an army. Yep, we fund it for them. Ever since we beat them in WWII, and started occupation. We've never left. Heck, I just read we just parked another supercarrier in one of their harbors. | |
