I await the day our City will create, and subsidize, a Non-Profiteering Corporation to make our toilet paper. Only then, would I expect the price to rise to 79 cents a roll.
Oh yea; let us create a trust fund, through municipal sleight-of-hand, with our tax money, to assure future ample subsidies to this endeavor. We can anticipate that removing it from the for-profit private sector will make production, at any sale price, unsustainable. Leave no child behind (unwiped). please forgive.
