I wish that there was highspeed everywhere and more importantly that it wasn't so expensive. However comparing the US to other countries with way fewer square miles to cover and more densely populated areas is unfair. Taking those factors into consideration makes the US's position not so embarrassing. The telco's and ISP's control of the infrastructure though, is still embarrassing and in need of reform.
