[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How are governments grocery stores supposed to work logistically? [/quote] 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.[/quote] Does he have business experience? Where is his wealth from?[/quote] 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. [/quote] 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. [/quote] Do you live in New York? If not, why do you care so much? [/quote]
