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.
