This is LITERALLY how you destroy an economy
You tax people to subsidize these community run grocery stores
But two things then happen
1) the people being overly taxed start to leave to places like Miami
2) shoppers leave traditional grocery stores for these subsidized community stores. Then the traditional grocery stores go bankrupt
Then the supply chain breaks down and even the commie stores can’t stock their inventory, at any price
Then people panic
Even more people flee
Then the government implements controls such as exit taxes
Then people hoard for themselves, stop working, turn on their neighbors etc
And the society descends into chaos
This is the story of the Soviet Union, Cuba, Venezuela, etc
Now coming to NYC!
Beginning of the downfall of one of the greatest cities of human history…
Why would we take advice from you? You guys are LITERALLY the very people that destroyed people’s ability to live in NYC.
Do you realize that communists destroyed their economies on purpose to gain power and control? Mamdani knows it. He is not naive. I escaped Venezuela, my family escaped the Soviet Union. Thanks @shaunmmaguire
