Re: NYC mayor's race. I took a quick look at the top four candidate's web sites to see how they see small business from an anti-monopoly lens. They all have 'get rid of regulations' and 'provide capital to struggling small businesses'' pro forma box checking.
Kathryn Garcia wants to retain the restaurant fee delivery cap on Uber, et al. She also has an interesting proposal on helping to live-stream theater. And she discusses the need to break from cable monopolies for universal broadband. kgfornyc.com/policy/recover…
Eric Adams wants to retain the restaurant fee delivery cap on Uber, et al. He also wants to tax online services, like streaming, and use the money to cut taxes on local businesses who are disadvantages by tech giants. ericadams2021.com/erics-economic…
Andrew Yang is weird/bold. Key is a vacancy tax, which would radically cut rent in a good way. Wants a public option against Amazon. Wants to keep the restaurant delivery fee cap, but help build predatory business models like ghost kitchens. yangforny.com/policies/relie…
Maya Wiley has very little. No position on the restaurant fee cap. mayawileyformayor.com/save-our-small…
