New York’s Democratic mayoral nominee, Assemblyman Zohran Mamdani, has proposed a government-run grocery store chain. He says it would pay no rent or taxes — and magically sell food at a lower cost than commercial free enterprise stores.
Forget that this socialist, government-run grocery store would put small, local, largely minority- and legal immigrant-run shops and bodegas out of business. Never mind that it would devastate thousands of New York City’s small grocery owners.
Don’t consider that the math of running a totally government-run socialist grocery store will require a lot of money from hard working taxpayers. It will have to pay for a bureaucracy — and make up for the lost real estate and business tax revenue that would have come from privately owned stores.
