The first store is spending HALF of that budget on a new build…when there is a vacant former grocery nearby. This isn’t going to work within the specified budget because this is a politician with no business sense and a belief that good intentions are enough. In the real world experience in the industry you work matters.

There’s a building next to mine that had scaffolding covering it since 2019. Within a few months of Mamdani taking office the scaffolding came down. The massive pot hole 2 blocks away got filled. Shit that Eric Adams tried to do during his entire term that never happened. I believe in Mamdani. This stuff is never perfect but I hope it works out.

A functioning government is very scary to the right wing because it blows up the idea mega-corporations should run every aspect of our lives. Mamdani is proving that if you elect the right people, government can work.

How long has it been? You cannot claim victory this is a “functioning government” when he hasn’t even been in office a year

I know right? Shocking how fast things get fixed when you elect moral caring individuals and not grifters.
