The wealth pouring into Florida from NY and CA is astonishing.

He doesn’t demand the elimination of the NYPD. He wants to tax Wall Street bros that work 4 hours/day and make millions so he can pay the cops more so they don’t have to slave away on 80 hours a week to make overtime pay. It’s sad that work life balance and fair pay has to even be explained. It seems people accept that public servants like cops or teachers deserve low pay

That’s pennies compared to the salary difference between departments, not to mention leaving before your pension eligible. Performative BS.

I heard Mamdani on a podcast. He is proposing one grocery store in each borough to see if this might work to help bring down the cost of groceries if profit can be removed as a prerequisite. He is proposing this as an experiment to see if it's workable. His willingness to try new ideas is what excites me the most about him.

Does he have business experience?
Where is his wealth from?

What scares you about 4 grocery stores as an experiment to see if they help improve nutritional access/grocery prices in food desserts? Why does the source of his wealth or his background matter at all? Rich businessmen are also encouraged to test out new ideas, but hopefully they realize not all great ideas come from those already established.

DP. That he doesn't know that running a grocery store isn't about a massive profit motive. It's 1-3%. The cost of groceries is mainly due to the cost of production and shipping. A government run grocery store doesn't solve that problem.

Do you live in New York? If not, why do you care so much?

Florida is a southern state with very substandard education and hospitals.

The government already subsidizes all the entities that you think are private sector by way of massive tax breaks.

Tax breaks are welfare

He wants one in each borough in food deserts. It’s going to be a huge mess if half of their produce department needs to be thrown out weekly because nobody buys. The food desert residents like those in the projects are used to cheap fast food, deli sandwiches, Sodas,and snack foods along with the lotto tickets and cigarettes from the bodegas.

They aren’t going to get a cart of vegetables without a car mind you and walk to their walk up apartment in nyc

How many government studies will it take to determine what is appropriate to stock in the grocery store?

They’ll stock the same things that the corporate grocery stores that the government already subsidizes do.

Surely you don't want to stock unhealthful foods like potato chips and soda?

Your kid must be racist like you. Why are you freaking out? Just because a brown muslim guy might be mayor? His mom is not even muslim. She made racy movies about lesbians.

Of course. Taking care of people is anathema to rich people who are themselves one paycheck away from catastrophe. They would prefer homeless people pissing in the Ny subways forever I guess
