It’s funny how the solutions for the failures of capitalism often end up looking just like socialism

Doesn’t look like socialism to me. Buiseness being city-owned isn’t enough.

Being City-Owned is like the fucking definition of socialism bruh.

The means of production [Store] are owned by the people [Voters].

Socialism is ownership by the workers who run the store. What you’re describing is a customer cooperative, which is just replacing bosses with “the people”

Your head is going to explode when you realize the workers are part of the citizenship that owns the store.
