New York doesn't have a "socialist healthcare system." They have the same healthcare system as all 49 other states: most people are privately insured, some are on medicare or medicaid, and the rest don't have any insurance. That's how it is across the entire country.

Except how their hospitals are under a central government control.

I didn't even know about this until just now but I assumed that the high number of deaths had to do with some sort of government intervention. Sure enough...there it is. Anyone with a history book knows that socialism kills people aggressively. So if people truly don't want people dying...try less socialism. But...I know, you really don't care about people dying. You care about the fear that you can use to spread more government. If you cared about life you'd be all about supporting life extension technology, allowing a free market health care system, encouraging population growth...
