'Power to communities': Chicago considers city-owned grocery store to address 'food deserts' after giants like Walmart and Whole Foods shutter stores (finance.yahoo.com)

The mayor’s office says it would be the first major U.S. city to enact such a plan.

Before 1916 theft wasn't an issue at the grocery, because the customer was not expected to fetch their own items.

You told the person what you needed and they went and got it for you.

If theft was the real reason, stores could simply return to this style of operation.
