> Living in Utah which tends to be a very anti-business-mandate place Very non-coincidental that Utah has one of the highest concentrations of MLM businesses in the country. Or the "industry" of "youth treatment" that is centered in Utah. Conversion therapy, etc. Thousands of allegations stretching decades of abuse, physical, sexual and emotional, federal inquiries.

I didn't say or act like Utah is a utopia. You invented that. Only that I don't have to pay to use bathrooms. I have my own complaints with this place too. We're gradually getting overtaken by the very things I laugh at California for. Funnily enough, a large contributor to the problem is Californians fleeing the consequences of their decisions. I can hardly afford to live in my home state, but the unaware affluent w…

To quote you... You invented that.

I have a child, they spontaneously have to pee upon entering any store or restaurant. I have visited far too many public restrooms in this state, I have never had to pay for one.

Similar to how California made a law that prohibited charging for access to public restrooms. The intention was free public restrooms for everyone but the result was that most of the public restrooms closed up and it’s harder than ever to find somewhere to go.

Dunno about SF, but the mitigating factor in. LA is that the bathroom is locked, you ask for a key, the key is only for customers. Not every place has a public bathroom but they didn't before either. Don't know if that's illegal but I doubt anyone cares about mom and pop shops. All the large chains still have open restrooms.

It's like that all over Florida and Georgia. Most gas stations where the bathrooms are not accessed from inside the convenience store have locked bathrooms. That isn't something unique to California.
