The market is still pretty wide-open for a service that offers rapid, random delivery services and that takes a very small cut.
Any of us are free to start such a thing right now, if they wish to spend the time putting it together and running it.
(But even as a socialist, I think that this is approximately the last thing that the government should be in the middle of.)

- eurleif 2y agoThe "random" part was made illegal in California in 2020: https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billTextClient.xhtml?bill_id=201920200AB2149 https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billTextClient.xhtm... And in Florida in 2024: https://www.flsenate.gov/Session/Bill/2024/676 https://www.flsenate.gov/Session/Bill/2024/676 (Probably also illegal in some other states, but those are the two I'm aware of off the top of my head.) I remember Postmates used to be able to deliver from any restaurant or store in your local area. Those were the days.
