The United States has about 80/people per square mile. Japan, has 850 people/square mile. Face it, its just easier to service more people in condensed areas. |

Actually, I agree: It's the geography: The CORPORATE and POLITICAL geography, that is! It has nothing to do with population density or a country's size--- because if that was the only factor, all the major urban areas would have the speeds and prices Japan enjoys. They don't, ergo, that argument that it's all the geography is clearly false. -- "Fascism should more properly be called corporatism because it is the merger of state and corporate power." -- Benito Mussolini

Face it, its just easier to service more people in condensed areas. You also can't lump them all in like that. California alone has WAY more homes per square mile than 80, guaranteed, and don't get me started on areas like Houston, New York City, and Philly. If it were a simple matter of people per square mile, California should be one of the cheapest deployments around. It's not. If anything we pay more for less. |
