Will this "Faster Internet Service" create job or just faster service. I am now wandering why I spend extra money on a car that can go from 0 miles/hour to 60 miles/hour in 60 seconds here in American Samoa when the speed limit is 30 miles/hour and suicidal to go at any speed over 50 miles/hour. Do we really need a "faster internet service" and much more so than improvement to our infrastructure, hospitals, schools etc.? - Sione Lousiale Kava
