      Submission statement: Relevant to neoliberalism because government-funded grocery stores generally operate at a significant loss, and there’s risk of scalping and undercutting local stores (which already operate on razor thin margins).

      Will be an interesting experiment at the very least.

      I try to call the balls and strikes with this guy and think he’s done mostly a good job governing. However, I’m sorry but this is dumb

      Could end up being pretty bad PR for him, obviously, demand is going to be super high for such low prices, so there is a high likelihood of stuff getting scalped, but if there are long queues and empty shelves, there’s also going to be a ton of socialism = bread lines jokes.

      Seems like a dumb policy that every critic will get to point at and laugh, while discounting all of the significant accomplishments he’s had.
