Waxman-Markey subsidizes ‘Shower Nazi’

A “Shower Nazi” may be coming your way courtesy of Waxman-Markey.

Section 217 of the bill provides for a “water efficient product incentive program” that would provide rebates, vouchers, direct installs and other forms of financial assistance for the installation of water-saving products.

...introducing the product, Shower Manager...

Quote
Here’s a letter from an actual satisfied customer of Shower Manager that is posted on the product web site:

    Your product is awesome!  We have had it for two weeks now and it works like a charm!  My kids call it the Shower Nazi… but with the savings on water, we’ll be able to reward them at the end of the month!
    Thanks, Lisa J

So your tax dollars may soon be used to outfit homes, hotel/motel rooms, gyms, and country clubs across the country with the Shower Nazi.

Isn’t green great?

Wtf? We got f&ckin Nazis in our showers now? :clueless:

on edit:
The product website must have cleaned out Nazi refs. But they may as well call it "Teh Shower Nazi"

"No shower for you", the Shower Nazi........Obama stinking up America in more ways than one.
“The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism. But, under the name of ‘liberalism’, they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.” - Norman Thomas, U.S. Socialist Party presidential candidate 1940, 1944 and 1948

"America is like a healthy body and its resistance is threefold: its patriotism, its morality, and its spiritual life. If we can undermine these three areas, America will collapse from within."  Stalin

Most shower nozzles already come with a water restriction sieve in the damn things to turn your nozzle into a drizzle.

The first damn thing I do is disassemble the freakin' thing and take that POS out. When I want the shower Nazis to start telling me how to take a freakin' shower, I'll call Lord Zero and tell him I'm a convert. Until then, they can kiss my ass.

First, they came for our toilets, and I remained silent because I wasn't a toilet...
Next, they came for our shower heads, and I remained silent because I wasn't a shower head...
Then, they came for our air freshener, and I remained silent because I wasn't an air freshener...

What's next?  Is the size of a square of toilet paper regulated by the Federal government yet?  We're killing too many trees, we have to do something!

It's an emergency.  If we don't do something now, it may be too late.  We can't continue with the status quo and expect toilet paper to remain affordable for the poorest in the nation.  The obvious answer is to appoint a Toilettries Czar to address this national crisis.

Yes, next week Obama is going to name Sheryl Crow as his "shit-paper czar".  One square only, please!

In some places, you've had a Well Water Nazi already, It's called the Corp of Engineers. The people they didn't take over, by imminent Domain, they run roughshod over their use of their land.

The toilet Nazis got us several years ago.  The "new & improved" low gallon flush should have saved the world from globalwarming by now.  What happened?

If you want to worship an orange pile of garbage with a reckless disregard for everything, get on down to Arbys & try our loaded curly fries.

Slip him a little of Cpl leBeau's strudel now and then, and you can just about do anything you want.

I belong to a group that has several members on cloth. Keep them in a bucket of white vinegar until wash day.No issues reported yet.

I use a "poor man's bidet", comprised of a spray bottle. Pre-cleaning the area is a lot cleaner and has reduced the need for any type of tp by at least 4x

Group?.....Bucket?.......Eeeeeeeew  :puke:
