Don't tell me that capitalism has failed, when the author has failed to make a point at all. This is Marxist B.S., meant to encourage government ownership of broadband connections so they can spy on us and charge us through the roof.
And if you keep telling yourself that enough times you'll eventually convince yourself its true. Either that or you're a comedic genius and I failed to spot the sarcasm. Regardless, I'm having a good laugh at your post right now over here with my cheap, fast broadband that I get because of the government mandated competition laws that my commie country has enacted.
