Why would they? The faster they make their network the faster they'll need an even faster network. Companies are in business to make themselves money too.
Also, there are billions of dollars in companies that rely on the internet to reach their customers. And they wouldn't exist without fast high speed internet. Amazon, Netflix. Newegg, and tens of thousands of others. How conveniently people forget about them. We wouldn't have access to the things we do now, if ISPs never upgraded beyond Dial up. And there will be things that we never will have if we don't get access to even higher speeds.
