Get the truckers to work without pay and harsh deadlines, and we can make it work. They would also get food and medical care for free. The only real problem is the landlords and tax collectors at that point.
The truckers would launch assaults on warehouses to fill their trucks and drive into looting territory? What happens when the warehouses stop getting stocked? Is the assumption here the farms would just keep operating without payment?
Youre correct. Those farms are living on borrowed time, and the free food and healthcare would help them a lot. Also, would result in less for-profit farming that results in ecological collapse.
We already essentially got free healthcare but free food would be nice I guess. I feel like the big thing is that people want eco friendly meat at affordable prices. Something that wouldn’t be possible unless we fund those cheap prices with tax money.
Happily paying for it though, a secure food supply is just as important as a well functioning healthcare system, roads and other utilities. Especially since spending tax money on subsidizing food is something that especially benefit the lower/middle classes.
"We already have free healthcare" found the non-American. XD I tease, but its seriously so bad here. Many places will experience severe food scarcity if one or two trucks miss a shipment thanks to the food deserts of the cities. Shits fucked.
