Can someone explain to me, please, exactly how the market system works. For example, the stallholders I gather pay a rent to work their stall. What happens when they decide they want to give up their stall? Do they just sling their hook (only if they're butchers of course) and that's it. Then the market looks for a new tennant for the stall? Do they not have some form of 'goodwill' in the business? Do they just have to walk away after building a business, in some instances for many years, and receive nothing for it? Answers to these questions would be appreciated as it would give me a better chance to understand the situation with regard to the proposed selloff.
