New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio announced Tuesday that all residents, regardless of citizenship status or ability to pay, will be guaranteed comprehensive health care. The recently re-elected Democratic mayor of the country's largest city announced on MSNBC Tuesday the government will pay for any and all resident's comprehensive care, including those who aren't eligible to receive comprehensive Medicaid coverage. The city's more than 600,000 uninsured residents, including its more than 300,000 undocumented residents, are included in this de Blasio guarantee.

This will be one of N fun things to watch fail.
Where N is a large number and lists progressive ideas.
Math is such an enemy of these clowns.
This isn’t going to end well.
The “makers” are leaving NY (CA an IL too) in DROVES. Now all the “takers are going to make a b-line to NY. HA ! Good luck!
Yep. All those doctors and nurses will work for free. After all they got into health care to take care of people.
Going to love to see how the financials of this plays out.
Librats go wild...
it so easy. They will out a fee on every financial transaction and force the big banks to pay it and pass it on to all the rest of Americans
Let’s see how long it takes New York City to go bankrupt.I don’t think it will be long before they’re screaming for a bailout.
sooo, nyc thinks it can find the money and resources for this, but the congress cant’t find $5b. smfh
I respectfully disagree. They know math. Their goal is to intentionally collapse the system and replace it.
How is he going to pay for it?
The new CA gov just promised healthcare to all illegals in CA.
Health Care COVERAGE does not mean Health Care SERVICES.
Don’t get too gleeful, Red Staters. Some of the “makers” actually vote for this kind of crap.
Damn! That looks like Detroit on a good day!
It’s fun to watch these Democrats try to “Out Socialist” each other.
I think you are right on the money. As soon as O-bro got elected this became very self evident. He started to openly act on it. This is also part of the Cloward-Piven strategy perpetuated since the 60’s.
Socialism does not work for the simple reason there is not enough money in the world for it to work.
Socialism in some ways is like a perpetual motion machine which are impossible since they violate either the first or second law of thermodynamics.
I am not sure if anyone has written LAWS concerning human behavior, but if so there should be one called THE MORE YOU REWARD SOMETHING THE MORE YOU GET, AND THE MORE YOU PUNISH THE LESS YOU GET.
So if you “reward” people with “free” stuff you will get more people in line for the free stuff. If you punish producers by taking what they produce you will get fewer producers.
Since HEALTH CARE is not free, the government would have to pay for it. But, the government does not have any money of its own. So they have to tax the producers to get money to pay for the free health care.
Results, poor people moving to New York for free health care and other benefits and productive people moving out.
Eventually the system collapses.
(I had to look up the reason perpetual machines do not work. It is not like I understand the three laws of thermodynamics
The Law of Effect.
Add two zeros to that and you might be somewhere in the ball park.
