In Episode 6 of Season 9, the first family of hillbilly-hijinks devotes an episode to a family vacation, like the ones they took when the guys were younger and poorer. Lake D'Arbonne, where the Robertsons own a home, was just the right "experience" for Willie's birthday. The trouble began when they were unable to find the key to the lake house and two of the youngins had to go #1 and #2. Uncle Si thought it a grand time for a soliloquy on real life issues:

“Society [has gotten] way too precious,” Si continued. “You've got to poop in the toilet not the lake? Hey, if I can't poop in the lake like a grown man, that means the yuppies win. And if the yuppies win, they'd sell America. I don't even know who you'd sell it to if the yuppies win, I mean, I wouldn't buy it.”

Once this great nation is lousy with indoor plumbing and automatic flushing toilets, replete with sissy yuppie toilet tissue and seat covers, the denouement of society begins. The depreciation of America's blue book value is unmistakable when folks can't just drop their draws and dump in a lake.
