Where the private market doesn't provide a grocery store, City Hall opens one. Groceries as public infrastructure. A good thing or a bad thing? IDK what to think.https://www.axios.com/government-run-grocery-store-baldwin-florida-ea5ee9f5-227d-4327-8105-f09c0792fe05.html?utm_source=newsletter&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=newsletter_axiosfutureofwork&stream=future …

I have a hard time seeing how remedying the problem of a food desert would be a bad thing. The damage to people's health of a food desert is extraordinary. If you need to look at it as the associated health costs, fine. Good thing.

For sure, definitely a good thing that they did it. The question is whether we should be more happy that they did it... or unhappy that a government had to open a supermarket so people can eat. That's not supposed to, um, be an active area of market failure is it?

I mean this respectfully, but “should we be happy they did this or sad they had to” is a naive/softball framing of the dichotomy here. How can this go wrong? Who decides which brands are carried? What are their incentives? Is it set up to be immune to bad actors in office?

It’s by definition going to run at a loss. How much is too much loss? Who sets the prices? What are success metrics before scaling this experiment?Socialists have a long history of inducing famine and mass death when they take over food supplies. Would tread cautiously.

Subsidizing living in rural areas doesn’t seem like a good idea. Like paying for a home rebuilt after wildfire or hurricane. What share of people don’t move because cities are too expensive?

Those are great questions, of course, and all real worries. The question that to me is a higher order bit: what's the next best alternative? Do these issues suggest... just let the population deal with the solution offered by the "free" (i.e., distorted-by-subsidies) market?

Yes. The state solution is a bet against innovation in the food supply chain. There’s a temporary gap as food is in ‘valley of mismatch’ and papering over it with systems that create more problems only delays a more optimal solution coming to market.https://florentcrivello.com/index.php/2019/04/29/software-the-tough-tomato-principle-and-the-great-weirdening-of-the-world/ …

Incentives in the private market generally do lead to better outcomes in how things are run when they can be run privately. In Canada all the liquor stores are run by the government. It's not that this is new, it's that it's unclear how to think about it (to me).
