Is there a version of this that includes something about Aldi and other pay to return shops?
The existence of Aldi carts is proof that there are a lot of people out there with no ability to self govern
But for a potential loss of $0.25 they can suddenly self govern.
It's also about the inconvenience of having to obtain another quarter.
Maybe we can use this to our advantage.
Every voter gets 0.25$, every public traffic ride nets you 0.25$, every CEO with a company that is net zero also gets 0.25$.
Also plays into the rules only apply if you’re rich, just pay for the convenience.

Aldi's deal is more about getting people to return carts all the way to the front entrance so that they don't have to pay employees to retrieve them from the corrals.
Of course, with their parking lots being small to begin with, I'm not so sure it'd make much of a difference (see also: Lidl, with the same size parking lot but no 25¢ locking carts).
