He's probably too rich to be bothered, but I don't see it as a claim of exclusivity, just remarking how it's good to see policy being built into the system that encourages neatness, decency, and order. Even in the little things.

We have the quarter-cart system in the US, at Aldi's...and that's about it. Everywhere else is fucking trash, carts everywhere, better or worse just depends on the day & foot traffic. I sure wish they did it everywhere.

"So I guess you put in 10 rubles here and then you get it back when you the cart back. So it's free but there is an incentive to return it -- and not just bring it to your homeless encampment."

This is Tucker's quote from the video. Not only did he explain to the audience the concept as if it didn't exist in America. He also fantasized about how it would potentially hurt homeless people.

Public speaking isn't easy ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I think I would briefly explain the concept for the benefit of anyone unfamiliar, and I would remove the "I guess" part from the front. My area didn't have an Aldi's until...idk. I want to say 2009. So it's old enough news to me, but maybe there's some people that have a Kroger/Walmart/everything else.
