Why Zohran Mamdani’s tribute to Fiorello La – Latest News
Hmm: $30 million to construct a single grocery store?
Mayor Zohran Mamdani made a huge deal of siting his first city-owned grocery by La Marqueta, {the marketplace} his distant predecessor Fiorello La Guardia opened in East Harlem to help locals save on fruits and greens, however the tribute’s barely price TikTok-level scrutiny.
No manner would Mayor La Guardia smile on the “sewer socialism” that Mamdani is pitching: Such gold-plated boondoggles would solely earn contempt from New York City’s Depression-era chief govt.
Not least as a result of La Guardia by no means would’ve indulged a self-importance project that’s seemingly to undercut different hard-working grocers within the space.
Then again, La Guardia by no means thought of himself a socialist: He was, in reality . . . a Republican.
