> Free buses and free child care are not remotely common policies in the US. Ditto for govt-run grocery stores.

While not common, free buses do exist throughout the US and Europe.

Free childcare is uncommon. IDK where that actually exists.

Government run stores is actually very common. Many states run the liquor stores. A few cities have government run grocery stores.

Freezing the rent on rent controlled buildings isn't common but rent control itself it quite uncommon. It's probably the easiest for Mamdani to accomplish.
