Comment on US agency will not reinstate $900 mln subsidy for SpaceX Starlink unit

If they could do it, don't understand why most places except the most rural western US can't do the same.

Just want to say that capitalism is about doing what is most profit able. That does not always mean it has to be the best service or product. This is one such example.

As a counter anecdote. I am 15 miles from a town of 150k people and I don’t have fiber, I don’t even have cable.
Thankfully these days we have 4G and Starlink. Otherwise we would have nothing.
