Ghosts of Former Soviet Union Leaders Grin As Mamdani's $30M NYC Communist Grocery Store Unveiled

Congrats to NY city voters. Their wishes came true. Stalin would be so proud.

How soon are those free busses coming?


On Sunday, he announced that the city’s first city-run grocery store will open in East Harlem, and it will cost $30 million to build and take over a year to complete.

Even assuming New York City’s priciest union-driven construction costs, a standard-sized 25,000-square-foot grocery store should only be about $15 million to build, said Adam Lehodey, an expert at the Manhattan Institute.

“Thirty million dollars for one store is exceptionally high, considering land prices are a significant part of the capital costs of new construction, and the city has announced that rents will be waived,” he said.

The store will be required to pay no taxes or rent, yet the neighboring competitors will face those high costs. That is not capitalism, folks.
Wow
 
I shop at a government run grocery store every week.

What’s the problem?

You should pay attention to the specific circumstances in Mamdani’istan.

There talking existing government property.

Will construct the infrastructure.

Then will contract the space to a private provider.

What did I miss?

Not much different than Starbucks running inside the Pentagon.

Redstare?

You’re not serious right.

Ya, stateless will be sold at discounts other items not. The store will be run by a contractor. That b means tapping into a larger good chain.

Under the contract the vendor saves on property and institute costs and those savings are too be passed spinning to the consumer.WW
