This sounds like the US in a nutshell to an outsider like me?

  One political party in the US is ideologically wed to the idea that government, _any_ government, cannot accomplish anything. That would be a big reason way you hear so much of that point of view. This bill will lead to a bunch of rural internet being a lot less crappy. Will it be perfect? No. Will it be better than it was? Yes.

    > This bill will lead to a bunch of rural internet being a lot less crappy. I was under the impression the US had tried similar before... and Comcast et. al. just pocketed the money and bumped their prices up some more.

      Without reading the entire bill, these appear to be accepting bids to do ~well defined work.
