An excellent proposal.   rl

The New America Foundation has issued an Issue Brief titled: Building a 21st
Century Broadband Superhighway, noting that the U.S. has fallen from first to
no longer in the top ten in terms of broadband access, adoption, speeds, and
prices.  The brief outlines a broadband initiative that would be as extensive
as the U.S. interstate system. The proposal would have broadband development
funded through the five-year reauthorization of an omnibus transportation bill
focused on improving the nation's infrastructure.
