“Small business owners like food cart vendors, are the backbone of New York City’s economy”
so were giving them free carts..
okay i get it...is socialism..
“like food cart vendors? what other small business could be considered to be Like...a food cart vendor??
“The funds to cover the cost of the 500 free carts doesn’t come from the city, but rather through a slew of donations and private partnerships, and 100 of the carts are earmarked for disabled veterans.”
Food carts are big, small business in NYC—and their current noise and emissions are a major source of pollution in very crowded streets.
If I understand correctly, the manufacturer is essentially donating these carts. If so, I don’t see anything not to like in this news.
Okay, I see now the cost is covered by donors. That’s fine with me too. It’s how a lot of the arts, parks and other civic goods get funded in the city.
If I had a brick and mortar cafe in NYC, I’d be highly pissed to have these things parking out front every morning...
