Bad bad bad bad bad bad *bad* idea. This might be ok in the Russian countryside, or any other countryside, but it an *excessively* bad thing in just about any modern city. If running water fails to run in the cities, and people do as you suggest, and take their business outside, it will not be long before tremendous numbers of people get sick and die. What with the high concentrations that people live in in most cities, I expect that this'd make the Black Death look like a mild case of the flu.
