Friedberg predicts subsidized grocery stores will fuel socialist movement as near-term success story.
“Blah blah blah. Well, I mean, the point is I don't think it really matters because over the near term, what the cheap grocery stores do is create an incredible success story for socialism that will help to support and fuel the socialist wave in urban centers around this country.”
Friedberg believes conventional wisdom about New York's city-run grocery stores failing is incorrect.
“Everyone's got it a little bit wrong in assuming that this thing is going to radically fail,”
Friedberg predicts government-subsidized grocery stores will succeed and inspire similar programs elsewhere.
“ that the government-subsidized grocery stores, one of Mamdani's core campaign promises, will likely come to fruition and spur similar efforts elsewhere when people see the stores in action. ”
