You know how bleach feels slimy when you get some on your hands? That’s because the chemical begins to breakdown your outer layer of skin (oils, fats, dead cells, etc.) almost immediately. That slim is *you*.

Some people consume chemicals which harm them because they’re entirely too credulous, and have placed their trust in the wrong people. People who take advantage of the ignorance of others for personal profit and influence. People who harbor no concern for the consequences to the health and well-being of those who chose to trust them.

Bleach is a great cleaner because it’s corrosive. Bleach is awful for your home’s plumbing (over time) *because it’s corrosive.*

(Too much) Bleach is bad for septic systems because it kills living tissue, and a healthy septic depends upon bacteria to continuously breakdown the waste. Killing off the bacteria stalls the system. Also, bleach is corrosive, and septic systems are made up of a variety of materials which can be damaged by bleach over the course of several decades.
