Zohran Mamdani: “Whether it's childcare, whether it's public transportation…”

“We need our Internet because we have all of our kids staying at home doing remote learning. And if you don't have Internet, you can't be taught. You can't learn. Whether it's childcare, whether it's public transportation, whether it's our utilities, whether it's our housing, whether it's our health care. These are not things that should be up for debate. Because we see what happens when we let the market be the sole determinant of the distribution of dignity. It picks and chooses people who can survive and people who can thrive.” (00:42–00:52)
