Lawmakers and public servants have ALWAYS been concerned with majorities.

I don't know where you get the idea that every single government program ever has to work for everyone - that's clearly not true and many useful programs are supposed to only serve a majority of people. Sewers are a great example of this.

Who does not use the sewage system?

Septic systems are used outside cities when no sewers are available. They're very common in the US.

Try requesting a special connection and extra treatment for your sewage.
