Maybe we can socialize grocery stores, it will help farmers bring their crop to market

There is such a thing as CO-OPs.

In some places, I feel like seizing all of the sobeys, metros, loblaws will expand their reach

I have a good thing going right now.

I have a csa to get seasonal stuff and eggs, a local farmers market for meat and berries. I hit up a locally owned Vietnamese grocery store for imported stuff and then costco once a quarter or so for bulk stuff and a little bit of processed stuff. Cut my food costs by more than half. Berries are 5 for 2.5 pints (5 of of those containers you get at the grocery store), I got kolbasa today, 10$ for about 2ft worth. Amazing quality too.
