"3 face prison time in special toilet paper scam"

From the Associated Press:

"WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. (AP) — Talk about a dirty scam.

"Federal prosecutors in Florida say at least three people working for a septic tank company duped customers into buying about $1 million in unnecessary products — in some cases enough toilet paper to last more than 70 years.

"More than a dozen customers were told they needed special toilet paper to avoid ruining their septic tanks because the federal government changed regulations on toilet paper. The federal government does not regulate septic tank products.

"The trio pleaded guilty in federal court to conspiring to commit wire fraud."



The scammers said "the federal government changed regulations on toilet paper." Don't give the feds any ideas. I can already see a TP Tax. Should those who use more toilet paper than others be taxed at the same rate as the others? What about those who use less? And then there's the whole toilet paper economy...

    Orbs, that consumption tax would be sexist, unfair and thrown out. Women need to use way more TP than men.

    Don't mess with my Charmin!!! Ladies, I have signs... it is time to protest! ;>
