Truth be told, that's likely the main issue for US gamers.

I'm currently playing from germany, which means around 3600 miles away. My connection to the servers in Montreal had around 110-120 MS latency and 5% packet loss. The infrastructure on the way being an ocean. When an US person tells me:"Under 100 MS latency coast to coast is possible at times", I wonder what exactly the cable providers in the US do with your signal on the way most of the times. It must be taking the scenic route for sure.

What can I say, our providers like to rob from their customers and no one bats an eye...

You have to take into consideration that all of USA isn't on fibre cabling, a lot of it is still on slow coppers, this is what the biggest issue would be, rather than just your service providers. Somehow I doubt there is a direct fibre link from east to west.
