@kaniini@mastodon.dereferenced.org I don't think choice will end up being an issue, but I fully accept I'm envisioning a situation like the modern grocery store wherein the government distributes food in bulk and people just... take what they need. Even today, we make more food than we can eat in this country, but price controls mean we have a hunger problem.

This would be something I'd try to solve on the back end by tracking consumption and billing people who use an excess without cause, instead of charging up front.
