Vouchers do not work for things that you have to have, are only purchased from a limited number of suppliers, and there is no feedback mechanism in place. Contrast my pickle story with another scenario: the local government announces that everybody must keep a jar of a certain kind of pickles at home. To facilitate that, vouchers will be provided to purchase these pickles from a vendor/distributor. Can you imagine how that'd work out? I can. Pickles would soon be costing 100 bucks a jar. And they'd contain one pickle if you were lucky.
