Comment on Watch first, then wipe: Some China’s restrooms put toilet paper behind paywall

As someone who lived in China for 7 years, the alternative is that the next best person who enters the bathroom takes all available paper home.
In my entire time there, I can count the number of times where paper was available on a single hand, with spare fingers.
Naturally, everybody carries a box of tissues at all times.

I’ve been told that China is so prosperous, why would there be no toilet paper‽

China is prosperous, don’t let anybody fool you. But people are deeply, inherently selfish and love money more than everything (yay, communism!), so if they can save 30 cents by taking a roll of toilet paper home, they will.

Yes, certain people in China are prosperous no doubt
