## Resource

The reality of government-run enterprises and how they compete with small businesses is starting to dawn on New York City, which is moving to open a city-run grocery store. Smaller grocery stores and bodegas in the city are now having discussions on how they can manage to stay in business while operating alongside a government-run competitor. We’ll discuss this topic and others in this episode of Crossroads. Views expressed in this video are opinions of the host and the guest, and do not necessarily reflect the views of The Epoch Times.
