The regulatory, ownership, taxation, subsidization, etc... policies of
the countries are vastly different. |

Not to mention hardware. I was just under 12,000' (3658 meters) on copper
wire from central office and the best I could get for adsl was 1500/384
kbit/s. I am in the process of getting moved to a closer remote terminal
where I will be able to get faster speed (temporarly on dialup until
completed). |

It's called corporate corruption and manipulation. The FCC and the
politicans have been bought and paid for by the corporations.

If you are still not convinced as to what is really going on in this
