    Don’t have to spend money just to hang around.

    Not to mention there are no more third spaces. When we leave our home, besides going to a park or something, you’re expected to pay at almost all establishments you go to. As in, you have to pay rent to use infrastructure you don’t own, so why not just stay at home since you’ve already paid for using that.

      You pay for parks too and in fact have partial ownership over most publicly funded parks though since everyone has property interest is still held as the property of another for trespassing after hours and such.

      Ed: why downvote? It’s a verifiable fact and implied by the phrase “public park”. It’s not free you’ve just already paid it via taxation.
