Broadband, Not

This article in the Washington Post just about sums it up. Our political indiference to the economics of information may be more costly than our attempted "leadership of the free world."

"America's record in expanding broadband communication is so poor that it should be viewed as an outrage by every consumer and businessperson in the country. Too few of us have broadband connections, and those who do pay too much for service that is too slow. It's hurting our economy, and things are only going to get worse if we don't do something about it."
