I don't get your self driving car point. It's just an analogy, or do you believe the government should be buying/using self driving cars?

I am also not sure if grocery delivery is as big of a problem as we are talking about? Does the government even provide grocery delivery?

For groceries: local government liaises with various NGOs that provide meals to older people living alone. The programs go by various names; "Meals on Wheels" is the one Americans likely recognize the most. But most counties or states have some kind of "agency on aging" that will connect to the program and uses the program volunteers as additional community eyes-and-ears.

Meals on Wheels served 2.2 million Americans in 2022.
