Don’t ask me what I want it for if you don’t want to pay some more.

A recent article in the New York Times documents yet another way that the treatment of profit (for some) as the supreme purpose of all human activity outweighs the public good.  Cell companies are increasing the charge for text messaging.  A service which costs them (next to) nothing.

On a personal note:  I pay about $35/per month for a home phone on which I make 3 to 5 calls.

I would like to charge Sprint and Verizon for using the services for which I pay so much, to try to sell me things.  Maybe I’ll include an invoice with my next payment.
