Government-Run Grocery Store Is Predictably Losing Money

[Independent thinker]

A government grocery store can't really lose money. It has to have made money for the good of the people as soon as it opens it's doors.

The store doesn't have any money to lose.

Ummmmmmmmmmmmm, the government says it is losing over 100K per year.

That's because the losses get charged to Uncle Sam's charge card. You know, the one that's up to 33 trillion dollars now.

You are making shit up again
They make money

Ghetto rats eat into the profit via theft.

Surely these thieves wouldn't steal from the government, would they?

Can't stick to the subject, can you? I totally understand why.

65,000 people have won substantial lottery prizes...and are still collecting food stamps. The volume of FRAUD and WASTE in government is staggering. Naturally the politicians are getting rich off government scams so people see nothing wrong with this.

I was in retail management at one time and one of my minimum wage employees who also collected government benefits came into a few thousand dollars. She pissed the money away as fast as she could because she was afraid it would interfere with her benefits. She continued working for me at minimum wage up until the time I left. She's probably still there.

Why is this one failing?

From what I read in the OP

Walmart is killing them like it’s killing thousands of other competitors

Who would have ever thought that government run grocery stores would be horrible and lose money? Yet another example of the left's embrace of socialism . . . . .

They will never admit it though

Why is this one failing?

the article says it is because of security /guard costs that increased due to high crime....not from running the grocery part of the business....?

The picture is from like 2021 when you search the image....

Viral #BidenEmptyShelves photos of bare stores are actually from Trump’s America and Australia

Social media has been flooded with fake or misleading images that show food shortages in ‘Biden’s America’
