    Just why.

    Seriously why does it seem over the last 15 years public toilets are becoming rarer it’s a mystery to me. Like the world population is growing a lot and we pay more taxes then ever, but it’s harder to relieve yourself in public then ever.

    And now businesses are trying to monetize the few toilets in public we still have.

      Innovative disruptions in previously non-monetized parts of life are the life fuel of our economy.
      Really excited how to see how this will innovate human interaction in the years to come!

      These are conserted efforts to reduce the presence of “undesirables”, also known as homeless or unhoused, in the areas without public bathrooms.

        Well the problem with public facilities is they allow people who are not rich enough to take a piss to take a piss, while depriving shareholders and Silicon Valley assholes entrepreneurs of profits. Before you know it you’ve got communism, and then everyone has a place to live and a toilet from which no one gets rich.
