I pay $40/month for unlimited data and text. But at a cost of
only 100 minutes a month. And they don't roll over. For me, this has
not been an issue.
Oh, after a set amount of data, it goes from 4G LTE to 3G. But
there is no additional cost for me. I've yet to reach the limit, so
this is also not an issue for me.

I'm on Verizon. They say they're going to eliminate 2G and 3G at the end
of the year (voice calls will use VOLTE). I wonder what they're going to
then.

I believe that should say "voice calls will *still* use VOLTE", (VoLTE,
meaning Voice over LTE), just as they do now. Data will hopefully
migrate to 5G with a fallback to 4G. Good riddance to 3G and 2G. 2G was
obsolete somewhere around 2003 or so, but carriers kept it because of
the hundreds of thousands of telemetry customers who use it, especially
in the trucking industry.
