Heterogeneous preferences don't hinder benefits of publicly provided private goods.
The article explores whether public provision of private goods can benefit everyone, even when people have different preferences. The researchers show that even with varying preferences, public provision can still improve the overall welfare of society. They found that a well-designed public provision scheme can lead to a better outcome for everyone compared to a system without public provision. This means that providing certain private goods publicly can be beneficial, even when people have different tastes and needs.
