I will point you in the right direction:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SOCKS
http://www.samair.ru/proxy/socks.htm

Do some reading and then follow this train of thought.

SSL or IPSec encrypted tunnel to a SOCKS server outside of the US. This is as far as the ISP will be able to see. That you contacted a server in some other country, period.

From that SOCKS server, you can surf as you please. Even ISPs on the destination side will only be able to track back to a site outside the US. Since the link between the two is held outside of the US, the logical linking of the two is much more difficult.

Further obscurity can be had via layered SOCKS accounts and/or further encryption tunnels.

How much does this type of setup slow one's surfing?

If they implement such BS regulations on ISPs I will use those services even when I 'have nothing to hide' just to make the intel analysts waste their time breaking the encryption to see my worthless internet traffic. I'm sure encrypted tunnels and proxy's will be regulated as well. I'd expect they will require some sort of license or permit to use them and make them so cost prohibitive only a business or a wealthy individual would own one.
