    But we also need to go to the toilet a few times a day. Doesn’t mean everybody should do some plumbling. Why can’t food be treated like a utility, like electricity and water?

      The answer to that is yes… Everyone should be able to do a little bit of plumbing.

      However you don’t need to a plumber every time you use the toilet so that’s a bad example.

      The concern is scale, Someone cooks your food every time you eat. One person can only cook for a limited number of humans. It only takes a dozen people to actively provide water to every house in a city.
