    Not everywhere in the USA is bad, especially in metro areas. I’ve got 10Gbps symmetric for US$40 where I live (San Francisco Bay Area, via Sonic.com), and there’s a few providers throughout the country (mainly smaller ones) that have similar price points. Some cities are lucky and have municipal internet, where the city provides the internet as a non-profit.
