Watters: This is dead on arrival

. >> Jesse: I'M GLAD WE GOT HIM. THANK YOU SO MUCH. >> YOU BET. >> Jesse: PAPERS PLEASE. ZOHRAN IS BRINGING THE GROCERY. GESTAPO TO NEW YORK CITY. >> YOU SAID IT WILL BE 30%. CHEAPER THAN AT THE. GROCERY STORE DOWN THE STREET. HOW WILL YOU KEEP PEOPLE FROM. TAKING ADVANTAGE OF THAT? >> WE ARE LOOKING TO MAKE SURE. THAT WE TARGET NEW YORKERS, WHETHER IT BE SORT OF A LIBRARY. CARD SITUATION AND WE MANAGE WHO. IS BUYING AND THAT IT'S FOCUSED.

ON EVERYDAY NEW YORKERS. >> Jesse: ID FOR CHIPS AND. DIP? THE LEFT COULD NOT STOMACH IT SO. THE COMMIE CAVED BY DINNERTIME. NO BOUNCERS AT THE BODEGA AFTER. ALL. >> WHEN WE ARE TALKING ABOUT A. CITY-RUN GROCERY STORE, ONE IN. EACH BOROUGH, WHICH BY THE WAY. YOU DO NOT NEED AN I.D. TO SHOP. AT NO MATTER WHAT YOU'VE JUST. HEARD IN THE NEWS OF TODAY. WE ARE TALKING ABOUT ACTUALLY. ADDRESSING THE QUESTION OF. SKYROCKETING GROCERY PRICES. >> Jesse: THAT'S NOT WHAT YOUR. GROCERY GIRL SAID YESTERDAY. ID, NO I.D., THE WHOLE THING IS.

DEAD ON ARRIVAL. FIVE CITY OWNED SUPERMARKETS, ONE PER BOROUGH, RUN BY THE. GOVERNMENT, STOPPED BY THE. GOVERNMENT, PRICED BY THE. GOVERNMENT, WHAT COULD POSSIBLY. GO WRONG? THEY SWEAR YOU WILL SAVE $90 A. MONTH. 30% OFF THE STAPLES, PRODUCE, MEATS, SEAFOOD, JUST ONE LITTLE. CATCH. NO HOT FOOD. NO DELI, NO BAKERY, NO BUTCHER. BUT NO SWEAT, COMMIES ARE VEGAN. EXCEPT TALAFREAKO WHO'S PUTTING. DOWN MORE CHICKEN THAN THE. COLONEL. THE FIRST STORE DOES NOT OPEN.

FOR A YEAR AND A HALF. AND THEY ARE STICKING IT IN AN. OLD JUVY IN THE BRONX. CHARMING. THAT IS SOCIALISM FOR YOU. 30% OFF THANKS TO SOMEBODY ELSE. SLIM PICKINGS ON THE SHELVES. A CAP ON WHAT YOU CAN CART OUT. AND AN ID AT THE DOOR. LESS OF A GROCERY STORE, MORE OF. A RATION LINE ON YOUR DIME. AND THAT'S BY DESIGN. THESE STORES AREN'T BUILT TO. SELL GROCERIES, THEY ARE BUILT. TO SELL SOCIALISM. >> I THINK THAT PEOPLE HAVE IT.

WRONG. I THINK THESE GROCERY STORES ARE. GOING TO BE WILDLY POPULAR. WHAT THE CHEAP GROCERY STORES DO. IS CREATE AN INCREDIBLE SUCCESS. STORY FOR SOCIALISM THAT WILL. HELP TO SUPPORT AND FUEL THE. SOCIALIST WAVE IN URBAN CENTERS. AROUND THIS COUNTRY. AND LET'S SAY EACH LOSES. 10 MILLION A YEAR AND THEY GET. TEN OR 20 OF THESE, THAT'S. $200 MILLION OF LOSSES PER YEAR. ON THE GROCERY STORE CHAIN, BUT. IT CREATES THIS EXTRAORDINARY. SOCIAL MOVEMENT FOR MORE OF. THESE GROCERY STORES SUPPORTING.

THE DSA AND SO ON. >> Jesse: 200 MILLION A YEAR. IN LOSSES BY DESIGN. MOST BUSINESSES TRY NOT TO LOSE. MONEY. FOR A MAMDANI, LOSING MONEY IS. THE POINT. THIS IS HOW IT GOES EVERY TIME. THEY TRY IT, YOU GO TORCH PRICES. WITH SOMEBODY ELSE'S CASH, THE. HERDS STAMPEDE IN AND THE. SHELVES ARE JUST RIPPED BARE BY. MIDNIGHT. BUT THAT'S WHEN THE BUREAUCRATS. SHOW UP TO TELL YOU ONE LOAF OF. BREAD IS YOUR LIMIT. INSTEAD OF WHOLE FOODS, THIS NO. FOODS. KANSAS CITY ALREADY TRIED IT.

CITY SUBSIDIZED GROCERY STORE. LOW INCOME NEIGHBORHOOD, GUESS. HOW THAT TURNED OUT. >> THE KC SUN FRESH. GROCERY STORE SUBSIDIZED BY THE. CITY TO SERVE A LOW INCOME. NEIGHBORHOOD ANNOUNCING IT WILL. CLOSE. EMPTY SHELVES, HE FUNKY ODOR AND. REPORTS OF CRIME AND DRUG USE. PLAGUED THE STORE. DESPITE TENS OF MILLIONS OF. DOLLARS IN CITY INVESTMENT, THIS. STORE LOST NEARLY $900,000 IN. THE LAST YEAR ALONE. >> Jesse: KANSAS CITY HAS. COMPANY. CHICAGO JUST LOST SEVEN.

GOVERNMENT BACKED GROCERY STORES. THIS MONTH. 13 AND A HALF MILLION IN. TAXPAYER CASH UP IN SMOKE. THE COMPANY SIGNED A 10-YEAR. DEAL. THEY DID NOT MAKE IT TO TWO. TURNS OUT A STORE THAT SURVIVES. ON SOMEBODY ELSE'S PAYCHECK IS. NOT A BUSINESS, IT'S A BAILOUT. BUT AT LEAST IT MAKES THEM FEEL. GOOD. SO HERE'S.
