Internet is faster in South Korea

The internet was basically invented in the United States but it is faster and cheaper in South Korea. They have much more competition in the this market. In Korea 94% of all people are connected to a high-speed connection when only 65% of people in America are connected to broadband. The government in South Korea encourages the people to use the internet in their daily lives and for education. South Korea also had a plan to get internet to its people ten years ago and the US is just coming up with a plan.

I think that the United States needs to become more competitive in the internet industry. This will lead to faster cheaper internet. It seems that Korea is just better because they started their plan earlier. I think that this is what we will eventually have in our country.
