I agree with Bob.
My water bills have been shocking high over the last year. I vote to go back to
the Chamber Pot method.

Dennis, you are right that these examples (." water, sewer," ) were not
invented by government.
We had a perfectly good system when flushing the night-wastes meant
throwing the contents of
the chamber-pot out the window, and sewage flowed freely in the
streets. You had to own a well in order
to get drinking water that wouldn't kill you. I think one of the first
tyrannies of local government had to be providing a community well for safe
drinking water. Its been downhill ever since for public welfare.
Stop Gubmint Kleptocracy! Fight for Freedom! Bring back Street-Sewage!
