Because we have the best Congress money can buy.

And lobbyists who write the laws.

Bam and Bam!

Don't you just love deregulation? It is almost as good a snowjob as Reaganomics.

Consider too that most of the other nations have government owned telecom companies. Here we have privately owned telecom wannaabeees

Damn San Francisco is off the charts!

I thought we here in the Big Apple would be paying the highest.

I'm sure SF is un-regulated :p

We pay more here because of the weather. :D

Of course the fact that so many of these countries are no bigger tha one or two States might have summat to do with it. Allocation of the bandwith? There is only so much between DC and green light.
