Getting all pissy about a feel-good story is a weird take.
If you don't like it, fine. But ranting about it is silly at best.
Does someone need a nap? How bout a snack buddy? I bet you'll feel way better after some goldfish and an apple juice.
I do believe if you read the article you would see reference to at least six other cities with this model as well...so you did not read the article. Saw the headline and decided to drop a duce on something nice...cool cool cool.
Ah ok so should we just roll over and give up then? That seems to be the argument you're getting at and while that might work for you I'd rather work with people in my community to have projects like this to help people, as well as also protesting and advocating for change.
I worked at one of these places in the US, they absolutely do exist. It was a free "market" stocked daily with produce, meat and a huge assortment of food products and our "shoppers" pushed carts around our market and picked whatever they wanted off the shelves.
I agree with your main point though, shit is fucked and things aren't getting better and our political system is broken beyond repair.
