Montana and United States Falling Behind in high speed Internet adoption

We need high speed Internet for our homes,
schools, hospitals, and the workplaces of the

South Korea have better, faster Internet connections.
People in Japan can download an
entire movie in just two minutes — it can take
two hours or more in the United States — but
they pay the same as we do in the U.S. for

larger percentage of people in those countries
have access to high speed connections. The
United States is 15th behind other industrialized
nations in high speed Internet adoption.
