You're wrong. The Internet isn't a human right, and even if it is, government shouldn't provide it. You wouldn't like government internet if you lived under, say, the Cuban government. Nor can you trust your government forever.
U.S. internet is bad because government got involved in franchising the running of copper decades ago. It's in a bad state because of the government. We Americans are debating whether we should use more policy to try to resolve the problem or hew to the right principle (minimal regulation) and not enact more policy, suffering the short and medium term consequences (i.e. more power to Comcast).
