Default Prison Phone Companies Fight For Right To Charge Inmates $14 A Minute

Here's a case of what seems like pure exploitative greed. Regardless of what you think about inmates, I think that rate is a little excessive. "None of us would consider ever paying $500 a month for a voice-only service where calls are dropped for seemingly no reason, where fees and commissions could be as high at 60 percent per call and, if we are not careful, where a four-minute call could cost us a whopping $54," FCC Commissioner Mignon Clyburn said before yesterday's vote.
