One way to do that would be to restructure some food companies, distribution warehouses and retailers as a public utility, like how the energy grid, sewers and water delivery are managed. If some processing plants, distribution warehouses and retailers were owned by government, they could use subsidies to buy grains, legumes like beans and meat directly from farmers, and the resulting goods could be made available free to everyone. Programs could alternatively take the form of universal school meals and open-to-all cafeterias that serve meals throughout the day.

Who is going to grow it, harvest it and process it if no one is working?
Venezuela here we come.
Been warning for years that Venezuela was a PTB laboratory (and aren’t we all rats) to see just how far down the rabbit hole they could go to deprive people of their liberty and property.
This is the stuff Ayn Rand used to write about—you can have “free food” for everyone if part of society is deemed the slaves who work and part of society is deemed the rulers who get the fruits of the slave labor.
Same with medical care.
Yeah, the govt would have us eating Soilent Green in no time.
Owned not by the government,

Nothing, nothing is FREE. Even the air you breathe costs you time, effort and energy.
FREE only means someone else is paying for it.
If everything were free, then there would be no need for a government.
We’ll, yes; the keepers of livestock are understood to be obliged to provide slops.

“Quickest route to starvation is let the gubmint control any part of the food supply.”
Yessir! Population control!
Recently, nothing. Our military used to be good at killing enemies and breaking things, it not so much since BO.
