--- Quote ---One of the dozen or so socialist policy proposals from NYC Democratic mayoral nominee Zohran Mamdani is the creation of government-funded grocery stores.

While the Democratic Party increasingly embraces socialist and Marxist-leaning policies, such as the seizure of private property, this idea of government-funded grocery stores appears disconnected from both fundamental economic realities and historical precedent.

Nowhere is this more evident than in East Kansas City, where a nonprofit operates a grocery store on government land that has become a symbol of failure, plagued by the smell of rot and empty shelves.
--- End quote ---

What happens if there are government run supermarkets that Zohran Mamdani advocates for. They have empty shelves and smell bad.

DLR Pyro:
Let NYC be the petri dish for this experiment and prove to the rest of the country the folly that government run grocery stores are

SVPete:
Government-run stores worked so well in the USSR.

ADsOutburst:
A rational person would look at that and say, "Hmm, maybe that policy isn't a good idea".

Leftists, however, seem to react to their own policy failures by growing stronger in their belief that they are somehow right.

SVPete:
Proggies focus on intentions while ignoring outcomes/results. Hence, Soviet failures just meant they "didn't do it right".
