voted for that with their wallets.

The report Valdis quoted said "More than 129 million people are limited to a 
single provider for broadband Internet access using the FCC definition of 25 
Mbps download and 3 Mbps upload.” 

This suggests that consumers don’t have the option of supporting alternatives 
with their wallets.
