Question: could not a private company mostly owned by the city do it? Normal for profit company providing alternatives? And do it block by block…

In my country… yes. If I get over the 3month (max allowed) testing period, then they almost cant fire me, so i’ll happy take those monies just for showing up. Of course, they dont have offices here :)

Why not?
