Jush have the city pay Walmart for all their food and allow niggeRs to take what they want. They steal a lot there anyway.

It was tried and didn't work -

Jesus H, what the hell are democRAT run cities doing.

My folks risked their lives defecting from the USSR to escape state owned and run grocery stores.

Could you cut and paste the article?  They want a subscription to read it.

I can't see it either, I just remember it happening and Googled for a link.

If there's one thing in life I avoid like the plague it's subscriptions. They keep sneaking the price up and up hoping you don't notice and if you go to cancel it's next to impossible. Any site that wants a subscription gets no clicks from me.

How would creating a government bureaucracy that owns grocery retailing benefit consumers?

I don't know enough about it to say it is good or bad. I am trying to understand the point of it.

It doesn't benefit consumers. It benefits low life trash who keep shoplifting until the regular grocery store is forced to close due to massive losses. The low lifes then start crying about the lack of grocery stores and the government sets one up to take it's place. Then they shoplift the government grocery store until it has to close too.

Why is it so fucking easy to steal from state owned grocery stores?

Because trying to stop them is racist and all that.

OMIGAWD! Do they only hire woke lazy white twits to work at them.

If New York actually elects this Mamdani, or whatever his name is, and goes forward with this grocery store plan, they will deserve the utter failure of that once-great city.

I still do not get the point of government owned grocery stores?

Are they supposed to have fresher produce and bread? Free range meat? Are they supposed to have less or no food with chemicals nobody can pronounce?

What is the reason that progtards are using that says government owned grocers would be better than Costco or Krogers?

It's not about being better, it's about being the only option. Regular stores get shoplifted out of business then lefties start crying about 'food deserts' and demand a government-run store to provide food. Which then get shoplifted out of business too.

I get it now. I read grocery stores are closing in Democrat run cities. Government alternatives will stay in business even if they are shoplifted empty everyday.
