Enough threatening! Do you think you’re a Hollywood star threatening the country with your absence if Trump wins. Mamdani won so just shake the dust from your sandals and move on.

Well said, Karl. I’ve seen more than a few stories with rich folks saying:

“I might leave New York now.”
“This might make me move.”
Etc.

Either do it and give a wake-up call to Mamdani, or shut up and take the drubbing he will give you.

Tuco’s Rule: If you are going to leave, leave; don’t talk.

Government run grocery stores could be a good thing for private grocery stores if the shoplifters make the move from private to public stores.

Come on down John Catsimatidis - come home.

Tarpon Springs is wonderful - as nice as Miami and has strong Greek heritable and great Greek restaurants. Florida has it all... Well ‘all’ except Commies...

A person on-the-ball would have had the U-Hauls packed up on election day.

Threats of this kind are foolish indulgences of ego.

It is past time to pack up and leave New York.

It could be entertaining to watch the battle of the billionaires as their supported factions fight for larger portions of a shrinking pie. But scavengers will pick the bones of the billionaires who stick around thinking they can control what they have unleashed there.

It is essential that no bailouts from the rest of the country are allowed to go to New York (State or City).

You might leave NYC? I might care.

Until you make a move, I won’t either.

His (Mamdani’s) proposals have struck a chord with New Yorkers frustrated by rising living costs and limited access to affordable food in underserved neighborhoods. The mayor-elect’s plan to establish grocery stores exempt from rent and property taxes, selling goods at wholesale prices...

Offering to pay for 'shrinkage' (theft) for free market stores would be another solution to the 'underservced neighborhoods'.... problem.

Private grocery store shelves will be full, while city-run stores will have bare shelves - where will the shoplifters ever go?

Catsimatidis, unless he moves, will be footing the entire Mamdani bill.

PLENTY OF EMPLOYEES AVAILABLE IN FLORIDA-—ESPECIALLY FOR A WELL-RUN GROCERY CHAIN.

LITTLE TRAINING TIME REQUIRED.

NIGHT JOBS=STOCK SHELVES & CLEANING STORES FOR STUDENTS,ETC.

There is no shoplifting in government-run grocery stores for a simple reason… they never have any products on the shelves to steal.

Don’t talk. Do it or shut up and bend over.

Sick of the blah blah blah.

Like one of those parents with the obnoxious kid running round annoying everyone. “If you do that one more time I’m going to punish you” heard a dozen times to no effect.

How can you shoplift from a free grocery store?
