It’s as if you’re arguing against maintaining effective sanitation by saying that, although a lack of sanitation would result in the spread of terrible disease, those plagues would be like a day at Disneyland compared to having continent-wide fires as the result of an asteroid strike like the one that killed off the dinosaurs.

So, no sanitation – just remember the asteroid that will probably come, some time a long long time from now.
What sharp, sharp reasoning skills you have.
