Episode Details

New York City wants to sell essential groceries at 30% below typical retail prices. Sounds great, until someone asks who pays the difference, how purchases get rationed, and what happens to every unsubsidized grocery store down the street.

Nate and Chuck break down Mamdani's government grocery plan and the bureaucratic monster required to keep it running. The proposal includes taxpayer-backed operating deficits, higher labor costs, purchase limits, restricted products, and a "library card-esque" system to prove shoppers are New Yorkers.

Also in this show:

• Why subsidized groceries could create resellers and black markets
• How the plan accidentally exposes what government does to existing stores
• Trump's latest "last chance" for Iran and the war nobody authorized
• The spread of Flock cameras and automated surveillance
