Yeah, wait a minute, why are all of those privately owned grocery chains worried? Surely the free market always delivers better products at cheaper prices, right?

- the government can’t do anything as efficiently as a business
- the government is too inexpensive and business can’t compete.

The commercial sector can't do it cheaper than the government without doing it worse because they necessarily have to add a surcharge to give to their investors as "profit."

Well, great news guys; these were opened in food deserts where you didn't want to open your stores, so you don't need to compete.
