Oss, they wouldnt really ban them.........they would hire a team of 40 scientists to spend billions dollars to develop a "safe" toilet.  Then they would mandate toilet replacement which would require legislation and  the development of a new department to oversee the installations all over the country.  Change over would take probaby 6-10 years. Of course people wouldnt all do it so they would have to outlaw the "fix" parts to the old toilets so when they break youd HAVE to get new.  This would lead to stock piling of the valves and flappers to the point that you would have big trouble finding them before the ban date and when you did they woud be so expensive you soon will be more willing to go with a new "safe" crapper.  Ultimately only the rich folks will be able to afford toilets, so BACK TO OUTHOUSES AGAIN.  Then thousands of septic pumpers businesses would go out of business and new concerns over water safety would arise as people get sick and die from water table contamination.  Soon anyone with an outhouse will be fined or jailed.  Then to avoid a nation wide catastrophe or riots in crap filled streets, the Feds will be forced to subsidize the purchase and installation of all new crappers and it will cost more billions and billions.  Wouldnt that be so much better.

Have you seen those new toilets with the squirter in the toilet seat? Saw one at Menards the other day... Heated rim, heated water... although if you hit the wrong button at the wrong time, I think it could make ya jump through the roof!  ;D
