Japanese Internet Satellite

In the article posted on the Fisch Bowl, it told me about how Japan launched a program that will allow people in rural areas of Japan to get the extremely fast internet speeds that the grids in big cities have long since had access to. This program is called "Kizuna" meaning "ties" or "bonds" in Japanese which makes me believe that Japan is a country that is so developed that everybody needs to constantly be in touch with each other. The internet program will get Net download speeds of 155 megabits per second. This is incredibly fast. Japan has the fastest internet in the world now because of Kizuna (that is available to the entire country). Why can't America be like this? We have the power to do so, but corporate America is so tight that they charge a ton for someone to have access to something as "necessary" as the internet. If Japan and America would just work together I bet that there would be such a thing as a hover car right now. By the two leading industrial and "electronic" nations banding together, the world would be so much farther advanced. We could help third world countries along the way to being a country that was truly worth something. Now, I am not saying we could end poverty, but helping them to create jobs would allow poor people to get jobs because with more jobs, the necessity for more workers appears. 30 years ago, the internet barely existed, and now it is time the world realizes that it has world changing potential.
