If the monthly rate makes the internet, then God forbid I make enough money to pay for what I want. I pay $79 a month for my internet, but it's 50/35 fiber, and it's incredibly stable. Verizon Fios. I run Lte on my cell phone, and honestly I pay for it. I'm not jeolous that it's cheaper somewhere else, I'm not saying everyone out there has equal internet, but where I live we aren't hurting for speeds. Honestly, I'm not a power user in terms of downloading, but I know that 6MB/s actual down is pretty decent, and Ill be ok with that. Like it or not, the US isn't completely on Docsis 2.0 cable like you all are making it sound.
