Yante Maten Frank mason Lonzo ball <| sep |> I don ' t see your answer for # 3 . You simply said France is trying it which is true . I haven ' t seen anything about its implementation yet , or whether it ' s feasible . Bear in mind , it ' s going to be easier in a smaller country like France than in a massive country like the US . that could be fixed by legislation very easily if a serious issueIt would take one journalistic report about homeless people getting food poisoning and reports that the homeless are only getting expiring food to force a sympathy law suit . It ' s not so cut and dry . You haven ' t addressed the very real concern about grocery store profitability . In North America a lot of grocers are struggling to stay afloat . If you both increase their expenses additional logistical costs and decrease their revenue people who opt to get older , but free food instead of paying , how do you expect them to survive ? In reality , they ' d be forced to greatly increase prices .
