And the government continues to give them more money. I've figured it out now.

People want better broadband. ISPs promise to broaden internet. Government gives money. ISPs spend a considerable amount of the promise of better broadband in marketing. Doesn't happen. People still want better broadband. ISPs promise again. Government gives more money. ISPs continue spending on marketing.

Over and over.
