    but people can and do change their attitudes and habits with the right incentives.

    I don’t think they do, because they have no idea what it means to borrow something.

    Nowadays nothing gets borrowed, no music, no movies, no video games. They all have services to buy it (even if they don’t own the bought stuff) or to stream it for “free”. There is not even a small thing people borrow nowadays, except of pencils in school. But to be honest, those who borrow something like a pencil nowadays, don’t bring it back.

    When was the last time someone (not a family member or really close person) borrowed something from you?

      People love convinence nowadays, not what you are suggesting. If you have a method to easily and convinently get what they need, they don’t to own it.

      Example - Clothing subscription services. You must send the clothes back you don’t intend to purchase. It must be in good condition.

      Everything is possible if you frame it the right way
