Americans fought a revolution to switch from a remote to a local aristocracy. Seriously, I have excellent records of family and region from the time period, and there was very little change from pre-revolution to post-revolution other than the names of the churches.
The ironic part of this is that we are all gonna be wiping our asses with paper currency at the rate things are going.
I honestly can't imagine using newspaper or the phone book. It's kind of like what I say about Sodom and Gomorrah: God wouldn't have had to worry about me adopting their evil ways, I would have died of diaper rash in the desert long before we got there.
Seriously, I have no romantic fantasies about life before modern comforts (and antibiotics) .
I think i'll write my congressman and ask for a couple free copies of the Obamacare law.
Paper tigers

— The Baltic states consume the least in the EU, each person averaging only 24 rolls a year
— In an average household in the US and Western Europe, a roll in the house’s most-used bathroom lasts about five days
