The missing X% without high speed internet available to them are primarily rural. Space's Starlink is poised to offer high speed internet to those exact people on a timeline faster than whatever this project dreams it can achieve, at zero (additional) cost to the government. The other chunk of society without access to high speed internet are the low income. So why not just spend $50B on welfare reform (or even Basic Income) to provide the financial means needed to access the existing high speed internet. They can buy internet, or something they need more. You'd save $50B. All together, this just seems like a new way to funnel $100B of tax money into the pockets of corporations who make the right political donations.
