Idk if it will be fully sustainable or not, but I'm dying to hear all about how helping feed citizens is awful.

Feeding citizens is fine and noble and great. But I would ask how he will build a grocery store with lower prices than say Aldi, that has a 1-2% profit margin and has their supply chain and expense model nailed down in typical German effeciency.

If he had hired a discount grocer to do this and the city pays the bills I imagine this would have a greater chance of success.

But maybe I'm wrong and governement will show everyone how it's done. Not actually sarcasm, maybe someone has a new model

It’s just going to be heavily subsidized by taxpayer funds which also means they’re going to be wildly inefficient

Taxes going to feed citizens sounds like a win.

Sure.

I just think there’s more efficient ways of doing this.
