| U.S. supports buggy whips The argument that South Korea is a small compact country falls flat. This is about the relative competitive nature of national infrastructure.
By far we are the wealthiest nation in the world, if we decided to have 10 Gbps to everyone in the country we could do it.
It takes recognizing that a new economy is being born and we should not miss it. Only when we have the political leadership that commits national resources to the goal, as with the national highway system, will we keep from losing this race.
Or we can ship IT jobs to China and India and let them take over the industry like Japan took over consumer electronics. Then maybe outdated networks will be a plus.
