Essay:Low flow toilets

Liberals came up with the idea of mandating low flow toilets, that use 1.6 gallons of water per flush. The consequence is toilet plunger sales have increased, and bathroom sanitation has declined. Fortunately after several years, engineering is catching up with the mandate, and low flow toilets that actually work are now reaching the market, though they are cost prohibitive to the lower classes. This may result in toilet price controls and laws against toilet profiteering. Conservatives have attempted to give consumers a greater choice in toilets, but ultimately realized that resistance was futile.

In the United States, the amount of water saved by converting to a low volume toilets is estimated to be TBD(smaller than you might think) gallons, or the amount of rain that falls in a TBD(probably smaller than you think) square mile region every year. In comparison, a single golf course in Nevada uses TBD gallons of water every year, and Al Gore squandered about 4 billion gallons of water for a canoe trip/photo opportunity down the Connecticut River in 1999.
