| IsambardPrince | You all piss in it and flush, and you don't notice that not all of the urine even got cleared in a single flush. | Jun 23 05:42 |
| IsambardPrince | So the bowl starts turning yellow with pieces of shit all over it, by the second or third day. | Jun 23 05:43 |
| IsambardPrince | And so you have to use more chemicals and clean it off. | Jun 23 05:43 |
| IsambardPrince | And send more chemicals down the drain. | Jun 23 05:43 |
| IsambardPrince | This is all because of the government. | Jun 23 05:43 |
| IsambardPrince | They have to regulate things like this because they want to be like Europe I guess. | Jun 23 05:43 |
| IsambardPrince | You know those chemicals are seriously bad for the environment. | Jun 23 05:44 |

| IsambardPrince | If you don't want to pay that you should have to give up your citizenship. | Jun 23 06:18 |
| IsambardPrince | The funny thing is that most of them are carrying major medical in the US and just don't want to pay their max annual out of pocket. | Jun 23 06:19 |
