Nassau County [NY] Staring At Possible ‘Toilet Tax’
County Executive Mangano Defends Controversial Proposal
October 15, 2010 6:13 PM
That's what it says: "Toilet Tax." MooPig would call it the "John Crapper Tax" .. although some would never get that either. Yes Toilet Tax on not-for-profit edifices and compounds in Nassau County. The expense will be passed right down to the taxpayers, you betcha'. You know you can't use dirty water to have a tea party ...eh?
Critics call the sewer fee — a “toilet tax” in Nassau County. Next year’s budget — for the first time — calls for previously tax-exempt public school districts, library districts and fire districts to increase their budgets, raise taxes, and, they fear, pass along the financial burden to taxpayers.MooPig Enterprises always keeps track of the scatological aspect of human endeavors. [Yes, you're welcome] It is an Infrastructure factor that does actually have a cap ... that is -- a finite level of tolerance. If we don't know how many actual flushes leading to gallons of raw sewage flow down to our water treatment plants, we will take a risk in over-flowing these facilities.
“It is being called taxpayer relief act when actually all we are doing is soaking the taxpayers with a toilet tax or sewer fee,” said Nassau County legislator Dave Denenberg, D-Merrick. (READ entire Article\ See Video HERE)
City Councils delve into water mechanics almost every time they meet. Water Districts in Houston area fight constantly for control of their wells, borders, storm sewers and sewage treatment plants. Taking dirty water and providing fresh drinkable water should be everyone's first concern. Water is not scarce, actually, the facilities are scarce is the problem. And the facilities are probably out of date, so to speak. That is why we bring you this article in name of ... "Infrastructur'a -- Epitome of Abstractions." Now we add to that title "Epitome of Distractions."
Go to your city council meetings and raise questions on the water facility you depend on.

Great insight, Moo.
As you will recall the Chicago Not-so-Free-ways, you can easily see how the personal Scan Code idea could be applied to the John Crapper Tax. A simple QR code tattooed on your ass could keep this simple. You could buy a months worth of constitutionals by simply going on-line and using your credit card to add dumps to your account. The Scan-Ass device attached to each toilet would easily pay for itself in no time. They could sell plans, like the Constipation Once-a-week Plan, or the Better-Safe-Than-Sorry Diarhia Plan.
If you try to go without paying or having the QR Code, everything gets blown back up at you after a picture of your butt is taken and posted on-line in the Shameful Offenders site. Then, whenever a cop pulls anyone over, they can ask you to drop your drawers so they can photograph your rear and run a check thru the system, so to speak.
There is no flaw in this plan and I believe there is no better place to test it out than in Chicago.
Amen

Hoy Mr C;
I see you are right on the mark here with the infrastructure piece of the puzzle.. how to measure the flush.
Certainly there will be, besides bar code butt tatt's, also vanity butt tatt's:
