not only is TP unhygienic (ummm let's see, do you wash your hands with a dry towel when they're dirty?) it's god-awful for the environment. for example:
If every household in the U.S replaced just one 4-pack of 500 sheet virgin fiber bathroom tissues with 100% recycled ones, we could save:
1.2 million trees 5.1 million cubic feet of landfill space, equal to over 5000 full garbage trucks 537 million gallons of water, a year's supply for over 15,300 families of four
not to mention eliminate/reduce the need for dioxin, a harmful bleach derivative that's used to insure that the paper you wipe your pristine ass with is nice and white.
honestly, your attitude perfectly illustrates everything that's wrong with this country:
1) ignorant of facts 2) yet arrogant in spite of #1 3) hyper-critical of things you don't understand 4) self-centered and self-serving
and - worst of all - stereotyping, anglocentric, fear/hate-mongering.
please crawl back under the rock from whence you came.
