Cellular Ripoff

The price of my 2yr cell plan subsidizes what I pay for my phone: why don't my rates drop at the end of two years (assume no device upgrade)? I mean, were I to cancel my plan and then take that same phone that just came off plan back to my carrier, wouldn't I qualify for the lower "BYO" plan-rate? So, why don't my rates automatically drop when my phone reaches it's two-year date?

I hate the US model of subsidized cellphone pricing.
