That these cannot be done by businesses is just an assertion, re-enforcing the status quo.
"The Machinery of Freedom"[0] is a book describing how a lot of these could work. I'm not yet sold that they would, but I'm not outright discarding the ideas.
Oh I don’t disagree that there aren’t things that could rather be served by businesses.
What I haven’t heard however are a couple of good examples (in a particular society) that are viable and would make a material positive dent, but I wouldn’t be surprised to hear some good ideas, especially in jurisdictions where a govt does a lot.
