Ajit Pal, the troll's head of the FCC, supports charging prisoners $14 an hour for phone calls.

This panders to those who want to grind the heel on prisoners, and will please many supporters of the troll. It will have the byproduct of increasing crime in the future, as prisoners who have limited communication with their families and friends will be less likely to fit back into society after they are released. (Most prisoners are released, you know.) So they will be led back to a life of crime.

But the main effect will be to enrich some companies, whose owners Pai seems to consider his cronies.
