I have wondered about the legality of these stores. In my state, a government entity can’t legally compete with the private sector for most services. Exceptions include healthcare and education, but the state can’t open something like a tire store or an ice cream chain that directly competes with the private sector.
I'm far from a legal expert, but it seems like this plan would run afoul of the Sherman anti-trust act. I'm pretty sure it is considered unfair competition if a private sector actor intentionally runs a business at below cost prices.

And Mamdani will solve this by giving them tax breaks, for sales & property, and pay their rent...
then increase local retail taxes by 5%.

Just go buyout the products from the GOV store and resell in yours.
You make more and there is nothing to buy at the GOV market..

Let's wait and see what kind of security they have at these stores.
I am guessing that the 30% discount will only apply to people actually willing to pay.
The ones willing to just steal will be allowed to get a 100% discount.
It will be a wipeout in record time.

You put the state run subsidized stores and factories next to the privately owned outfits.
Kind of a different story, but same result.
Starbucks is notorious for doing exactly this. Just showing proof that the model works.

What are the stores going to do when one customer comes in on the first day and buys all their government inventory and resells it?

They are going to claim that the quickly emptied shelves prove how badly the stores are needed.

This, but unironically. They don't care that a handful of stores fail. They only care for all the stores in the city failing.

I don't care what New York City or the state of New York do that the voters basically have approved through elections. What I do care about is always stupid mother frickers fleeing, especially to Florida, and fricking it up here. That's what morons do.

Bodega owners didn’t vote for Mamdani. It was white wealthy liberals.

VOR told me the other day that terms used to describe mamdani like “socialist” were GOP scare tactics and that mamdani isn’t really a socialist because he doesn’t do socialist things.

This is not sustainable. Private owned grocery store won't be able to compete and will close. Then what will new yorkers be left with, bread lines ?
And you’ve just uncovered their plan all along. They won’t everyone dependent on the government.
