It should work to bring down prices because the network would be paid for and so there's less of a need to make up for costs. Doesn't matter anyway, since the ISPs just pocketed the money and paid it out in bonuses rather than build what was promised.

Should yes but the federal government doesn't make conditions for the funds and if they do it's just ignore without consequences.
