So Mamdani has announced he wants to open a humanitarian-style store. A part of the description mentions it's going to be based in food people need. That made me want to ask, is it going to be like the Country Buffet where you pay what you weigh? Because if so, I'm cooked because I'm fat. Thanks stupid thyroid :(

I don't have the details of the plan in question, but I imagine it will work similar to military commissaries (a chain of government run grocery stores).

Great video! Nice to see someone highlighting successful government run grocery stores!

A bit funny to see congress people that use and support government run grocery stores, while also talking bad about them.
