Zohran Mamdani’s city-owned grocery fantasy isn’t policy—it’s ideological arson. Kansas City’s KC Sun Fresh proves the model: $885K in losses, empty shelves, and crime-ridden parking lots. This isn’t solving food deserts—it’s creating taxpayer-funded wastelands. Mamdani’s plan to replicate this failure across NYC? A direct pipeline from your wallet to activist slush funds.

His “public option” stores would operate like Venezuela’s state-run markets—empty promises, emptier aisles, and a hunger for control. While private grocers fight to survive on X% margins, Mamdani wants to burn $20M per borough on stores designed to launder money, not stock milk.

This isn’t compassion. It’s catastrophe dressed in socialist slogans—and New Yorkers will pay the price.
