So, about those city-owned grocery stores . . . I'm back in Free Expression, explaining why NYC's city-owned grocery stores won't succeed.

@WSJFreeEx Based. Giving money to the poor directly is more efficient. Even more so if we stop policing what they buy.

@WSJFreeEx of course you're in a fucking whole foods

@WSJFreeEx queen

@WSJFreeEx If only these came out before the election

@WSJFreeEx Berlin in the '50s was a clear experiment: West Berlin was capitalist, East Berlin communist. There's zero competition between those two economic models, but I guess Democrats know nothing about history. Keep up the great work, Emma!

@WSJFreeEx How long until this program shuts down? Throwing money into the sky so a couple nonprofits can make a quick buck is ridiculous.

@WSJFreeEx Great video. It’s hard to imagine how much economical ignorance is required to think that these stores will be successful.

@WSJFreeEx Good read—city-owned grocery stores sound shaky. You and @MattSevenich are top tier follows.

@WSJFreeEx EAT QUEEN

@WSJFreeEx Oh. She's stupid stupid.

@WSJFreeEx Don’t bother with facts the reality of economics; socialists have no use for them.

@WSJFreeEx Love your work and I pray for your comments and DMs when the Mamdani stans see this.

@WSJFreeEx Their definition of “success” is undercutting other stores and driving them out of business so that the government stores are all that remain. By that standard, it has a decent chance of succeeding.

@WSJFreeEx Do they sell snake oil. I need some of that. I’m thinking about going into politics.

@WSJFreeEx Thank you for your service 🫡

@WSJFreeEx Nailed It!

@WSJFreeEx Socialists like it when they can replace private industry (ex., grocery stores) with government-run organizations. In fact, private industry is in direct competition with socialism. Democrats tend to compete with private industry for control over our economy.

@WSJFreeEx Collectivists to barricades...🥳

@WSJFreeEx You're the best, Emma
