I decided to do this and show people how a comparison in land size might come in handy very well here. I used the first link for this, but I provided two links to check out. https://www.atlasandboots.com/remote-jobs/countries-with-the-fastest-internet-in-the-world/ https://www.swedishnomad.com/fastest-internet-in-the-world/ In terms of square mileage The United States or America is about the same size (roughly or close) as Europe (continent). ----- Taiwan - Area: 13,974 sq miles Singapore - Area: 277 sq miles Jersey - Area: 44.79 sq miles - throw in the U.K. (The United Kingdom) to as well - 94,058 sq miles Sweden - Area: 173,859 sq miles Denmark - Area: 16,638 sq miles Japan - Area: 145,924 sq miles Luxembourg - Area: 998 sq miles Netherlands - Area: 16,039 sq miles Switzerland - Area: 15,940 sq miles San Marino - Area: 23 sq miles Norway - Area: 125,020 sq miles Andorra - Area: 180 sq miles Spain - Area: 195,124 sq miles Belgium - Area: 11,786 sq miles Latvia - Area: 24,937 sq miles New Zealand - Area: 103,798 sq miles Estonia - Area: 17,462 sq miles Hong Kong - Area: 427.80 sq miles Hungary - Area: 35,918 sq miles Lithuania - Area: 25,212 sq miles France - Area: 248,572 sq miles Slovakia - Area: 18,932 sq miles Finland - Area: 130,558 sq miles ----- America - Area: 3,000,000 square miles (Alaska removed as well as rounded down to 3,000,000) First 24 countries - plus U.K. - minus America (obviously) from the list from the website above. The total for the first 24 (basically - minus America) - 1,415,700 - square miles 3,000,000 square miles (America) Vs. 1,415,700 square miles (other in the top 24 - minus America) America is still twice the size and trying to lay that much ground cable alone... When I try to visualize the network or visualize the network for America alone vs the other 20+ countries (combined) in the top 25 (minus Canada) it just doesn't compare. Even after removing Alaska and some other extra space to round it down to 3,000,000 square miles then trying to compare it just doesn't work since America is still twice the size (basically) of all those other countries combined in the top 25 (minus Canada) ----- America isn't doing bad at all considering it's twice the size (square mileage) of all the first 24 countries combined (minus America). This is one list I can't say America is sliding in myself personally since laying all the cable for America alone wouldn't be an easy task and/or easy job due to square mileage alone. ----- Let me know if I calculated out something wrong by mistake (it shouldn't matter that much). Maybe take the geek / nerd elements of my life too far sometimes... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4-oGk8al9Uo ----- This post isn't political and it's more or so tech / technology, but I figured get this in here to as well... $150,000,000,000 or $150 billion for high speed internet (100 Mbps - bare minimum). America is a MASSIVE country in terms of square mileage that compares to China, Canada, and/or the entire Continent of Europe in terms of square mileage. Also can throw in Brazil to as well for a comparison. Again not political (avoiding this) as I wanted this to be unbiased tech / technology and keep politics out of it, but this is a side note for now. This can be used to easily argue with any "internet for all" plan in America or The United States for now though (like the the one below). socialist jew bernie sanders though alone... can't stand this type of politics alone when there's no research and/or etc. https://berniesanders.com/issues/high-speed-internet-all/
