About this listen

New York City Democrat Mayoral Candidate Zohran Mamdani tells his supporters he wants to “turn the page in New York City” with a fresh new agenda. However, there’s nothing new about what Mamdani is proposing. In fact, his socialist policies are quite old. “City-owned grocery stores?” It’s called a co-op and California had plenty in the 1970s until people began to notice that their produce was no better than Safeways. “Freezing the rent?” Owners of rent-stabilized properties in the Bronx lose an average of $120 per month on each apartment, resulting in 200,000 severely rundown apartment units, according to Mark Willis, a senior policy fellow at NYU’s Furman Center on Real Estate. “Fast, fare free buses” won’t work while people are jumping the turnstiles and using the subway for free, argues Victor Davis Hanson on today’s edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.” 👉Don’t miss out on Victor’s latest videos by subscribing to The Daily Signal today.
