Sewage is most likely still just calculated by how much water you use. In my state they are separate but you can pay for a sewer deduction meter to go on outside spigots so you’re not paying for the sewage for outside use, but they’re almost $700 so I haven’t bothered.
Yes, there is a line item. There is also a line item for taxes. But saying “it’s on my bill too” supports the OP’s claim despite the OP being wrong.
If you pay for your friend’s dinner at a restaurant, they aren’t stealing just because the bill has separate line items for food, service, taxes, etc. You are paying it all.
So your house has a sewage meter that measures the amount of sewage you produce?
No, sewage use is measured by water use.
The person I replied to said they’re billed separately!
It is everywhere I’ve lived in Texas. You pay water and wastewater separately.

But it doesn’t matter because the person paying for your water is also paying for your sewage.
There is nothing stolen.
I made no implications whatsoever. I only confirmed the billing situation.

Right, and in some cases you get a rebate, ie swimming pool
If you live a housing development the place as a whole might be.
