Republicans: If Mamdani establishes a handful of government-owned grocery stores to make life more affordable there will be bread lines all over NY.

Yes, the cashier on their feet full-time should be able to afford rent, groceries, and healthcare with their paycheck.

Until we pass FDR's economic bill of rights the 1% will continue to live in extraordinary abundance while the working class struggles to survive. Medicare for All, a living wage, a free education, rent control & Social Security expansion - it ain't complicated & it ain't radical.
You deserve healthcare. You deserve housing. You don't deserve a government that spends your money on a military budget bigger than the next 11 nations combined.
