I’m not a lawyer, but I play one on FR.
What possible standing does she have to force a private enterprise to operate at a loss?
The result of such policies will inevitably be government-run grocery stores. Then you’ll be in big trouble.
No market is worth this. I close shop in 30 days.
She can’t stop ‘em.
She has no mechanism or leverage for that.
100% pure D bullsh!t.
How very Atlas Shrugged of them.................
” I close shop in 30 days.”
Stop all incoming inventory. Sell what’s on the shelf, and close shop.
Or
"Elections have consequences." -- Barack Obama
That's the thing -- when Democrats win, they get carte blanche and can do anything they want. They won. Deal with it. But it's different when Republicans win. Because no one likes those guys and so you don't have to do what they say, right?
they might if the city owns the building, but if a chain comes in, buys the property and builds it’s building, then you have no standing.

Stop all incoming inventory. Sell what’s on the shelf, and close shop.
DO it without remorse. Layoff EVERYONE. If you own the property, suitable for CITY owned grocery store, put a massive price tag on it.
If PRIVATE business doesn’t ensure ALL of these SOCIALIST/COMMUNIST Mayor’s fail this cancer will spread.
Can the mayor stop them from doubling the price on every item in the store?
” a sanctuary city where the tired, poor, and work-averse foreigners can live”
My favorite line, nice going John!
In addition to the losses due to shoplifting, these stores have an increasingly difficult time finding employees willing to risk their lives working there.
What is it called when government owns businesses?
Cuba
Boy is she in for a surprise!
