Moving to the cloud is a huge problem for U.S. based business.

Moving to the cloud is no problem if your business is outside of the U.S

In a decade nearly all computer services and all business will be web based. That's no problem in Seoul or Arnheim. 

But it's something that can kill U.S. based businesses here that aren't based in a place like Chattanooga, TN "Your GIG is here."or in a Utah city that is part of UTOIA “Utah Telecommunication Open Infrastructure Agency.

"COMMUNITY-BASED BROADBAND SOLUTIONS  

THE BENEFITS OF COMPETITION AND CHOICE FOR COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT AND HIGHSPEED INTERNET ACCESS:" 

"Affordable, reliable access to high speed broadband is critical to U.S. economic growth and competitiveness. Upgrading to higher-speed broadband lets consumers use the Internet in new ways, increases the productivity of American individuals and businesses, and drives innovation throughout the digital ecosystem. As this report describes, while the private sector has made investments to dramatically expand broadband access in the U.S., challenges still remain. Many markets remain unserved or underserved. Others do not benefit from the kind of competition that drives down costs and improves quality. To help fill the void, hundreds of towns and cities around the country have developed their own locally-owned networks. This report describes the benefits of higher-speed broadband access, the current challenges facing the market, and the benefits of competition – including competition from community broadband networks."

Nearly all internet service in the U.S. is controlled by a monopoly like Verizon or AT&T. (Copper based Comcast doesn't have and can't possibly have high speed high bandwidth internet service. Comcast is a 1980 copper cable TV company.) 

Modern businesses need reliable and fast wide band width Internet. That's why the mostly unused fiber optic cable under Lincoln Highway from Coatesville to Downingtown can drive businesses to Coatesville, Caln and Downingtown if we make it available for Internet.

"Industry analysts say Amazon is by far the largest provider of cloud infrastructure and services to the federal government, including to the Central Intelligence Agency and the Pentagon. The company declined to say how many U.S. government agencies it serves, but it has 1,500 government clients globally. Amazon also has a government-only cloud for storing sensitive data...

 The tech company also teamed with agencies that were open to experimentation, such as NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory, an early adopter of the Amazon cloud.

“We realized eight years ago that cloud computing would be a game-changer — we could do science in a few days that we would otherwise spend weeks on,” said Tom Soderstrom, the laboratory’s chief technology officer.
NASA’s test case for cloud storage occurred when the Curiosity rover touched down on Mars in 2012. The rover’s high-resolution images were hosted on Amazon’s cloud, so they could be consumed by the world in real time, Soderstrom said."
