Setting Goals for Internent Access in America

Any plan for the future of Internet access in America must have clear justifiable goals. For example, do we want to play catch up to Japan which already offers its citizens more than 100 Gbps for $20/month or with S. Korea which has nearly ubiquitous access.

I believe the discussion is not whether to build out Internet access to everyone in the U.S. This is a given. Everyone in the U.S.
