Shoplifting from the gov't is not allowed.


The Medicaid books in some states indicate otherwise.

On second thought, I guess that's more embezzlement than shoplifting.

An interesting question, since, as we all know, requiring ID is 'racist'

He’s a moron. The other store owners will just go to his government stores to buy groceries to resell.

They'll sell at a loss to make a point, then raise taxes. Then claim it's working

That will work for a few years and then the entire thing will collapse.

So, the FedGov template?

This is a money grab similar to USAID. The operators pay no property tax, no business license fees, probably no insurance and are not required to break even.

If they waved property tax and licensing fees to the current grocery stores I’m sure prices could be lowered. Especially if you guaranteed to bank roll them if they came up short.

They will have to create a new tax to pay for this.

I’m sure it will be run by upstanding citizens who will not be pocketing hundreds of thousands of dollars while providing substandard products that are on the verge of spoil.

Nobody really knows how this turns out.
It could be an obvious unmitigated disaster, or it could limp along as a partially subsidized grocery store.

I’ll be interested in watching what happens. If it turns out to be a reasonably priced alternative for working class New Yorkers without seriously damaging the evonomy, good for them.

I don't know the actual plan, but, if the grocery stores are funded by taxpayer money, then they would be able to undersell the commercial stores.

Taking taxpayer dollars to fund social programs and benefits for the urban poor is part of the Blueprint of the Dem political platform.

I'm surprised that nobody previously has tried this out.

Free Healthcare for all illegal immigrants

Free Food or Govt subsidized Food for all illegal immigrants.

This is how you create a permanent voting bloc for Dems. Dems do not need white people's votes any longer.

Yeah, but couldn't they currently get away with that at virtually any NYC grocery store?

Not when you consider the population breakdown over the same time frame.

It's called the replacement theory. First mastered in California now expanding to NY and soon Texas. Florida is in their sights as well.

Anyone who doesn't believe that foreigners are voting on our elections and heavily tipping the scales of the Census to effect congress is willfully ignorant

We should’ve kicked every single one of em out of the country beginning 9/12.
