Obama Says Internet Will Save America

Every percentage point increase in broadband adoption creates 220,000 jobs. US President-Elect Barack Obama clearly understands that correlation. In his video address this weekend, Obama reveals that his economic recovery plan involves raising broadband penetration. Since his plan aims to create 2.5 million jobs, he’s probably targeting a twelve percent increase in broadband adoption.

If Obama can convince Congress that the Internet will help save America from recession, then I can’t wait for Inauguration Day.
