>>540821147>Select items 30%Plus workers will be robbing the store blind loading up their trunks with food along with the black store managers all being legitimized by the workers and managers as >shieeet my taxes paying for dis government will just buy more But commies refuse to learn from history and think a new face changes everything
OH GOD NO NOT THE HECKIN AMALL BUSINESSES! Quickly everyone! Pay $10 for a gallon of milk at a shitty bodega!
>>540821505The sky will fall and niggers will fuck YOUR wife if that goddamned communist grocery store is built! Keep posting screencaps of fox news headlines dude!!!!
>>540821505>Plus workers will be robbing the store blind loading up their trunks with food along with the black store managers all being legitimized by the workers and managers asDidn’t know America was such a low trust society.
>>540821575Don't forget your food quota coupons comrade, or the 6 hour wait in line would've been all for nothing!
>>540821870This is what the line at a nyc whole foods looks like right now lol
>>540821147Mom pop stores are retarded by not just buying their inventory from mamdani to resell.
>>540822014>bodegas can just sell meat and produceYou are genuinely retarded
>>540822014I question the economics of a shopkeeper going into the cut rate store to buy the random things marked down versus just buying wholesale like a non retard. anyway this is just a subsidy that attempts to go directly toward the buyer instead of the corp, what a concept
>>540821147bill maher is a zionist kike however no idea if the stores will work, probably not but he's just mad because he's jewish
>>540822252>I question the economics of a shopkeeper going into the cut rate store to buy the random things marked down versus just buying wholesale like a non retard.If you lived near dot Indians that buy everything out or go to food banks then try to resale at 2x markup, you'd understand
>>540821147Mandani will make NYC judenfrei
>>540822456I realize they exist but they are mentally retarded. Like the types who stand in line for hours to save $10. Not a serious problem compared to passing savings directly to the consumer instead of continuing to throw money at corpos that do nothing but pocket the subsidy
why do these need to be or be called "grocery stores"? are they not just food aid without the very low income threshold to qualify for the supplementary food programs in the USA?
>>540821147I can already hear leftists sayign>what mom and pop grocery storesbut i kind of think they're correct.Every shops at a chain.The chains may in fact be forced to reduce prices slightly....Hmmm unsure how this will turn out. Gov run places tend to suck so if its all rotten and shit then its useless.We'll see.
>>540821147All the staff will be niggers so expect a huge amount of it being stolen. No one will care because the government is paying for it anyway.No one is going to stop shoplifters. People will just load up and walk out the door. Also the government will simply keep buying more.I assume the stores will have budget?
>>540821853Any restaurant serving wine has to deal with staff (read:niggers) that take home opened or unopened "leftover" bottles. The only thing that may discourage internal theft is that a lot of the food would require meal prep and therefore is less appealing to a lazy individual. Prepackaged food is going to see a lot of shrinkage.
Yes I will travel to the worst part of the city to buy restricted inventory all to save a bit on some cans of beans. And only the amount I’m allowed to buy at a time.This will destroy the economy!
>>540821147Love watching neocons start agreeing with bill “house nigga” Maher
The first one is opening in 2027 and is literally in the middle of the projects. Next one is in 2029.These are basically soup kitchens that charge a fee. You know you can literally go get free food at a soup kitchen today right? Why don’t you? It would destroy the market because it’s undercutting everyone! Blacks will steal all the soup anyways!
>>540821853>niggers>high trust
Why doesn't Mugabe just make the groceries free???
>>540821853How could you not know that? NYC especially..
City owned grocery stores….The only slight problems I see are…Jobs at the stores will be patronage jobs with incompetent or corrupt workers getting the jobs.Workers at the stores will ignore shoplifting because it’s not their job to police, it’s racists to confront people of color, and it’s unjust to charge people for food. Moreover most shoplifters will be their families.The workers will steal the food and the money.Upper management will steal the food before it reaches the shelves both for personal consumption or to resell out of state.
>>540821147>Be NYC state grocery store>Sell everything at a loss>Have no money to pay employees or restock inventory because you sold everything for a loss >Have to constantly have the state come in and pay for restock AND pay employees >Have to go through ten thousand loops to get store restocked every time>Within months the building is 90% empty because even the state doesn't want to endlessly front the bill to restock This shit is fucking retarded and doomed
>>540822312He couldn't be more obvious. The guy who says religion is ridiculous then bats for jews. Never been funny, his whole shtick is shitting on muslims and christians
I don't care.Jews jewing jews in jew york
I bet it’s actually more expensive
>>540824543How is this different from shit like Wal-Mart?
>use tax money to run a grocery>make taxpayers pay for it again
>>5408211472 more weeks and it will be a disaster!
>>540821147Will the razorblades, makeup and batteries be behind plexiglass?That would be racist to put it behind plexiglass.
>>540821147Convenience store owners will buy up everything at a 30% discount, the resell it at double the price.
The stores won't matter because no one value shops anymore. The #1 driver of inflation is consumer spending habits.A Chipotle burrito costs $20 because people are lining up to buy them at $20.
>>540821575Yeah let's have state ran grocery stores. Then state ran farms so they can function at the low prices being set. Then we will just have "free" food because its easier for the state to just get rid of prices than have to continuously adjust them. Im sure itll work out and not just cause the state ran grocery stores to be completely empty and then no competition in the city to help take up slack.
>>540821698your parents watched you get your dick mutilated when you were a little boy, abdul
>>540823938>Free food at a soup kitchenIt's dogshit from India and china. Legitimately tastes awful. I'm sure if you're desperate it's something, maybe.
>>540821147>The first store is expected to open in...So we're still in the stage where we create a bunch of government agencies to do focus groups, feasibility studies, environmental impact reports, and logo designs. Do any of you dumb niggers really think there will ever be free-shit stores?
>>540825396This is where you pay all your friends and relatives "consulting" fees. The best legal way to steal tax dollars.
>>540825232The farming industry is already heavily subsidized. Besides, the defense industry runs just fine with huge government involvement, why would this be different?
>>540825505Subsidies aren't state ran. That is how its different. Influencing isn't the same as control.
>>540825505May I ask what your IQ is? Why did you think subsidies was the same as state run?Can you explain?
>>540821147It would work in a +97% white society. I believe that's not the demographics of NYC
>>540825479Which is the whole point of any of this municipal theater. >"Task Force on Municipal Food Equity" is formed. >This department requires an Executive Director, an Assistant Deputy Director, a community outreach coordinator, and an external consulting firm.Party insiders and career grant-chasers are going to bilk the city for millions turning tax dollars into press releases about how awesome all these free shit stores are going to be after we just give them a few more million to decide on a color pallet and catchy logo design.
>>540822252You should go to a big box store and see the number of people with tourniquets wrapped around their brains with carts of soda that's on sale. They ain't buying it to drink themselves.
>>540821698Oh my god is that a fox news! REEEEEEE
>>540825082Wal mart tries to minimize and punish this behavior.The government will not, because the government will be the perpetrators.
>>540821147There are no white "mom and pop grocery stores" left in NY so it's fine
>>540825232Ah yes because billionnaires care about you so much.
>>540821147This is exactly why business and corporations hate 'big government.' As soon as the govt meddles in business it has an unfair advantage. Business would rather just get free handouts from the government. But theoretically the govt is more in the side of the people than a psychotic corporation which serves only investors. So everyone should be pro-Mandani's ideas except sell out corporate stooges who aren't allowed to have big shows without spouting the corporate-speak.
I, for one, look forward to the entirety of NYC becoming a food desert.
>>540826258Exactly. I'm a Chicago School and Trickle Down acolyte and even I'm pro Mamdani on this issue.
>>540821147Why is it okay for Walmart to undercut other stores to offer low prices and drive smaller stores out of business, but when a city-run grocery store does the same back at Walmart its offensive?
>>540826371They'd argue a city store has an unfair advantage because it doesn't have to derive its revenue from customers, it can tax people. They could theoretically run at a loss indefinitely via deficit spending and taxationI'm pro-Mamdani but this would be their counter argument.
>>540825592State RUN, you stupid fucking imbecile. >>540825232STATE RUN. Repeat after me: state… RUN. Mush-brained fucking retard. Let’s try one more time, huh? State RUN.

>>540821147>late 2027bruh... like, 2 years ? for a store what are they doing making the building itself.Also, what a dumb fucking communist. A store nigger ? the OG communists believe that the only relationship should be between consumer and producer... no middleman.

>>540826258On paper it looks good, but we'll have to see how it works out in practice.It's interesting to see all the retards going muh mom and pop stores like walmart didn't drive them all extinct.
>>540823742i think they came out and said they won't be doing prepared food at these stores.
>>540828679when a politician says something add some time according to you experience. you stupid zoomer dumb nigger. You aint never getting your commie store, nigger

Most of it gets trashed too because it's weird obscure items (squid).Programs like snap do help people, but most treat it like it's a free $300 in their pocket because they didn't have to buy groceries that month.
>>540829344who is this propagnda even for?
>>540822084They do tho
>>540828888I’m not a Mamdani supporter you dumb fuck, I’m OP, you’re just coping because of how fundamentally low your numeracy is. You said late 2027 is two years from now. Even if never builds or it or takes a five year plan that doesn’t make you look like any less of a retard
>>540821505>refuse to learn from historyWhen has this ever been done before? Mamdani has said if it doesn't work he will try something else.
>>540830031>>540821505learn to read
>>540822671Dumbass where do you think the products are coming from eh? They're not pulling them out of their butt. They're using taxpayer money to buy from the corporations, probably at retail price, and then selling it at a reduced price to people. The corpos are getting their money anyway. All this does is add extra steps and allow niggers to rob the place blind.
>>540821147Well if Bill Maher and the vigilant fox say so it must be true
>>540822671They buy the sodas with food stamps because and all of their family members are on ebt. they pretend to be living in poverty while operating their bodega because they are lying about their income to keep their benefits and not pay any taxes.
>>540821147If this jew is kvetching it can't be a bad idea
>>540825505This is one of the many reasons why I hate liberals. I guarantee you this asshole bitches and screams about the "military industrial complex" all the time, but the moment it helps prove their point suddenly the military industry runs just fine.
>>540821147it would be better if they just invested money in local regenerative agriculturea lot of problems disappear if better options crowd out the wasteful abuse
>>540821147here's the thing happening now- nigger bus drivers and nigger subway booth workers give zero fucks about other niggers dodging fares. a nigger can literally walk on a bus, pass the bus driver, and not pay. mind you it's $3 for everyone else. this same exact thing will happen at these stores. niggers are less than 25% of the population in nyc and over 75% of the problems. so tired of niggers.
>>540821147Bill Maher doesn't understand how economics works apparently. Just because items are being sold 30% below the average market rate doesn't mean you are suddenly not profiting anymore. Our markets are hyperinflated and overvalued anyways, this is just a government enforced market correction and they are now being sold for closer to their true value. Again, minus 30% doesn't suddenly mean people are losing money if you were dragging in 80% profits in the first place, consider things like pharmaceutical and tech industries racketing prices up to 500%-2000% profit per item, losing a mere 30% isn't going to put a dent into your ability to produce and sell those products. >Putting mom and pops out of business.Sometimes moving forward means letting go of the past. It's an unfortunate sight but our people are suffering and need relief, if ugly, but optimized logistic chains can help... then we should move forward instead of being dragged down to accommodate everyone. We can always come back and beautify things later. Also no one is shedding tears or showing any remorse over everyone else facing AI and H1B layoffs. They're just told to face reality and march in line with progress, stop holding us back, welp guess mom and pops need to start marching in line too. Fuckers.>>540821505Asian countries figured this one out. You have to insert your credit card to enter the store, kind of like a hall pass. Then tracking cameras automatically bill your card as you pick up products and put them into your cart. There is no way to escape law enforcement and paying for products in that setup. Sure one guy can leave the door open and let crackheads into to rob the place but then his card and face is on camera and now he's accessory to a robbery.
>>540832598If you actually believe any of this shit is going to happen you can double your money on every dollar you care to bet on it.
>>540821147> first store in late 2027That's two more weeks, right?Mamdani could sit in Gitmo by then.
>>540832598>optimized logistic chains can help>run by the state>no profit motive>optimizedBe serious.
>>540831026Nigger brain logic.
>>540832829When he says "mom and pop" he means businesses owned by his extended family, you are goyim
>>540826371Because walmart isn't 100% paid for by taxes, dipshit.
>Bill Maher>Early LifeHmm.. of course
>>540821147>Mamdani tries something >It could fail >Stakes and consequences are pretty much nonexistent*meanwhile*>Trump and MAGA fucks every thing up he touches>Destroying 100+ years of US socioeconomic supremacy for literally nothing>Lining his, his family, and his friends pockets while he does it >*crickets*I fucking hate fake "centrists".
>>540821870Mom and pops should have worked a little harder to keep the prices down! Perhaps they should hire illegal immigrants, pay them under the table, and purchase all their goods from oversea counties that lack labor laws.I can feel that capitalism flowing through my veins baby!
These stores will not have enough supply to meaningfully impact the grocery market in NYC. Instead, it will be bought out every day and resold/used for restaurants. It's arbitrage. If you think a small immigrant restaurant or bodega won't have a cousin waiting in line for hours before the stores open every day, ready to buy everything in the meat department, you are a fool.The economics of subsidizing a 30% discount on goods AND creating an entire DMV-style bureaucracy to monitor who can shop there and what they can buy AND following up to ensure the goods are only being used for personal household consumption is ridiculous.Grocery stores themselves actually have very small margins. The issue is the consolidation, if not outright monopolization, in every single category of groceries and consumer goods. There is no competition. Look at any product category in a grocery store and there are 1-3 international corporate suppliers filling the shelves up with endless SKUs.
>>540833540>Mom and pops should have worked a little harder to keep the prices down!Mamdani has already said his prices will be 30% below other stores, so even if other stores lowered their prices he'd just lower his again. It's like playing chess with a pigeon, all he's doing is strutting around with his chest out and knocking over pieces. He knows it's impossible to compete with him and he's rubbing it in your face because the purpose of propaganda isn't the convince but to humiliate.
>>540833551>Instead, it will be bought out every day and resold/used for restaurantsOne of his advisors has already said that to shop there you'll have to have ID that shows you aren't in a position to resell. Mamdani won't say this himself on camera because he doesn't want side to side soundclips of "you need ID to buy bananas" and "you shouldn't need ID to vote in elections" to do the rounds.
>>540828778>Mamdani's utopia wont be even 1% of the pool... he's just going to failA well known fact about government programs is that if they fail they get more funding so that next time they don't fail. The empty shelves will be viewed as a success because the items are in such high demand, and more stores will be opened. Empty shelves will become the norm, at which point the comparisons with the Soviet Union write themselves.
>>540833540Thing about a set 30% price reduction and no limits to who can buy is that everyone outside of NYC will visit NYC to buy huge amounts of supply from these shops and then drive home happy with their groceries partially paid by the NYC tax payer. The only way to prevent this from happening is coupons or IDs, which would turn Mamdanis shops into communist bloc food lines.Government control makes sense for rigid infastructure that is vital for society and hard to move around. Not so much for grocery stores which are easy to setup and which profit margins are usually very low. When NYC kills all of private grocery stores, then it is forced to setup even more 30% off stores to compensate, further burdening the NYC tax-payer. Also any and all theft happening in those stores? You will pay for it. Its your tax money being used, so when they refill the shelves its you that is paying money for the lost sales.
>>540835335But the other stores still get to compete? America encourages domestic economical competition.do you think Walmart is just as bad as msmdanimart? Because I promise the corner stores can't match walmarts prices while providing a livable wage.Whats the difference between mamdanimart and walmarts through the lens of capitalism?
