THE ONE QUESTION YOU NEED TO ASK TO STOP GETTING RIPPED OFF

 So unlimited talk and text have finally become the norm.  What a relief. No more costly overages or wasted minutes.  I guess 2 decades of screwing us with that scam was deemed sufficient...  BUT, our cel providers STILL call upon our psychic powers to select a data plan. Why? They don't gouge you with inflated charges when you exceed your plan - as they did with talk and text plans.  So what's their angle? Why don't they just charge a set rate per MB or GB, up to a certain dollar amount, beyond which usage is unlimited? That's basically what they're doing anyways right?   ...Almost.  They're forcing you to pre-select a data allotment that is above your average usage.  Thus forcing you to pay for more than you use.  That's why the plans jump from 2GB to 5GB. No doubt the most common usage is between 2 and 3GB.

There is NO practical reason for this system.  It is solely in place to rip you off.  And no one utters a single word of protest.  A few geniuses protest by simply paying for unlimited data so they can feel like they're not participating in the nonsense guessing game. I understand the reasoning and reward for that reaction - but it's still a retarded act of defeat.  

HERE'S THE ONE SIMPLE THING EVERYONE NEEDS TO DO:

CALL YOUR CELLULAR PROVIDER AND ASK THEM TO EXPLAIN WHY THEY REQUIRE YOU TO PRE-SELECT A DATA ALLOTMENT INSTEAD OF JUST CHARGING AN EQUIVALENT RATE PER THE AMOUNT ACTUALLY USED? WHY?

WHY DON'T THEY JUST CHARGE FOR ACTUAL USAGE LIKE ANY OTHER VARIABLE USE UTILITY (ELECTRICITY, WATER, GAS) - OR ANY OTHER PRODUCT FOR THAT MATTER?!?!?!

STOP RIPPING US OFF!!!!
