I don’t believe non-government grocery stores will compete. They’ll keep their prices the same. The government stores will quickly run out of food. The others, assuming they aren’t price controlled, will do well. If they are price controlled, if they can, they’ll quit. There’s no reason to financially bleed out if you can simply close your doors and leave for better climes.
Look for lots of lawfare as the city sues entrepreneurs.
This is going to be very interesting to watch. This Commie is going to be under scrutiny 24/7/365.
President Trump is going to have a Field Day with this poser - even more so than 0bama, LOL!
Even the Enemy Media is worried. I honestly wasn’t expecting that.
“We will prove that there is no problem too large for government to solve and no concern too small for it to care about.”
For example: Too many people are hungry in X-country.
Solution: Kill ten percent. No more hungry people in X.
As someone said the other day on Fox news, apparently nyc hasn’t felt enough pain at the hands of liberals, democrats (and now communist muslims).....maybe this will be a wakeup call but I have my doubts.

They made their bed, let ‘em lie in it.

Reagan once said, “The most terrifying words in the English language:”
‘I’m from the government and I’m here to help.’”
<><>And Mamdani’s statement is just that. On steroids.
<><>the most alarming part of his victory speech:
<><>“We will prove that there is no problem too large for govt to solve”
<><>”and no concern too small for it to care about.”
<><>Genuinely one of the most horrifying quotes ever heard from a politician.
Look on the bright side: he’s probably lying.
Is a government run grocery store like a commissary?
Globalize the intifada. Death, slavery and pursuit of infidels. Jihad in the republic 11-5-2025.
Lets do the no competition in the food business and watch all the food disappear.
New Yorkers just gave the green light to turn NYC into Uganda. In fact, it should be referred to as NEW UGANDA and no more “New Yawkers”, but Ugandans.
I see one advantage of these government run stores. Theoretically, unless they get real creative with how they operate them, they should be subject to open records requests. Usually, departments like produce, meet, bakery, and other similar departments do monthly inventories, while the non-perishable departments such as frozen food, dairy, and dry grocery do inventory twice a year.
But these stores operate for a while, then just start getting record requests of all their invoices, inventory reports, etc. Just to see how much is stolen from them.
See tagline...
I knew he was absolutely insane, however, I didn’t realize he was “ no more NYPD responding to domestic violence calls” insane. Where are all the domestic violence/women’s safety advocacy groups on that one?
I saw east Berlin in 1962. We know how that turned out. After many years and many deaths.
Great post on the crazy new mayor.
If anyone sane remains in NYC—run—now.
Feed the homeless to the hungry.
92% of New York City voted for the left. Enjoy.
