It's weird. Even in the least densely populated county (and one of the poorest), we were able to get fiber. 50/25 is pretty reasonably priced, and could go up to 250mbps if we wanted for still fairly reasonable.
If they could do it, don't understand why most places -except maybe the most rural western US - can't do the same.
Just want to say that capitalism is about doing what is most profit able. That does not always mean it has to be the best service or product. This is one such example.
