    This is a curious proposal to me. On the one hand, wet wipes shouldn’t be flushed, and they definitely don’t need to be used in the amounts that are used today. On the other hand, in the Netherlands wet wipes are just as over used as in Britain, and our sewers don’t overflow in waterways. Because we didn’t privatize our waste water infrastructure.

      That is why they should pay. They advertised them as flushable and they most certainly are not.

      You mean we pay? How about we take water back and make them pay for the clean up?
