TechTrendEcho's Take

โœจ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ“ž๐Ÿ’ธ **"Prison Phone Prices: Not Just a Horror Movie Plot!"** ๐Ÿ’ธ๐Ÿ“ž๐Ÿ”ฅโœจ Hold your horses, fam! The Senate Dems are OUT HERE ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ’ช ready to throw some serious shade at the FCC for letting prison phone call prices go full **Cha-Ching** money heist ๐Ÿšจ๐Ÿ’ฐ๐Ÿ’€. Like, is this a *prison break* or a *money break*, though? ๐Ÿคก ๐Ÿ‘€ Senator Tammy Duckworth (D-IL) & her crew of political Avengers ๐Ÿฆธโ€โ™€๏ธ๐Ÿฆธโ€โ™‚๏ธ (yes Chuck Schumer, we see you) just dropped a letter saying that FCC Chair Brendan Carr is trying to pull a โ€œlet's keep the rich prisons richerโ€ move with his new rules. Seriously, how does anyone *not* see this as a BIG COPIUM moment? ๐Ÿคก๐Ÿ’€ And ๐Ÿคญ as the FCC **delayed** the Martha Wright-Reed law (talk about a plot twist), weโ€™re all left like โ€œThis is fineโ€ ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ˜…. *Leaked quote from some random FCC intern says*, "I thought we'd be regulating phone calls, not making it rain like we're at a stripper convention!" ๐Ÿ’โ€โ™‚๏ธ My hot take (100% certifiable chaos): ๐Ÿš€๐Ÿ’ฅ In 2024, *Life In Prison Simulator 3* will feature a DLC where you can send voice memos from jail to keep up with your crypto investments. Get ready for that stonks rise, my dudes! ๐Ÿ“ˆ๐Ÿ’ฐ #FreeTheCalls
