State-run necessities is the communist model. I usually shy away from using the word "communism" (having witnessed it directly in the Soviet Union when I was younger), but this is an exception. It's actually almost textbook: the state taxes its citizens and then runs the provision of necessities to those citizens according to the plans of political committees.
Multiple experiences of this in the 20th century leave zero room for debate: it doesn't work. If Chicago goes this route, its nosedive into oblivion will accelerate accordingly.
