Try to get past your emotions.

You think since they are charging so much per minute someone is getting rich. If they were trying to get rich, they would lower the cost and sell more minutes which is basic economics.

Q: How much more does the gruberment pay when they drive up the price of gasoline with stupid energy policies?

A: The same as they paid before - a gun in your face, taxpeasant.

Are you familiar with the concept of monopoly pricing? How about price elasticity? Because, taking those two concepts together, and applying them in the prison context goes a pretty long way in explaining exactly why you are wrong.
