The government doesn't need to be particularly efficient or incorruptible to provide a covered marketplace. It's basically touchless.

- gernb 4y agoWhat does "touchless" mean? Who cleans the place up each day? Who maintains the building? (cleaning the toilets, fixing broken doors and windows, and other general maintenance) Who decides which iof the 95 people who want a booth get one of the 20 available spaces? Who polices that the items sold are safe? etc.. etc..
- woodruffw 4y agoThis is a weird list of FUD for the kind of basic public amenity that even borderline failed states manage to provide. If this was a missile base or a oil refinery, maybe there'd be something to consider here. But we're talking about one of the oldest forms of public marketplace; plenty of marketplaces don't even have toilets or windows. My local one doesn't.
