As an American man I only have a 40% chance of developing cancer in my lifetime, but with universal healthcare there’s 100% chance I will have to pay for it.
Do you have health insurance? Well guess what, then you are paying for it already, only more than with universal health care.
I don’t believe in gambling.

The entirety of our economic structure is gambling.

All of it.

No, I set a value on my labor and I take that value, no more or less.
You’re gambling that there’s someone willing to pay that amount for your labor. The stakes? Your financial security.

That’s not gambling.

That is working.

Then you need to define gambling and working in no uncertain or ambiguous terms.

When describing that which you do not wish to partake in, you gotta be REAL clear.

Then we can understand what you mean by gambling vs working.

I don’t need to because I never walk into a casino in Vegas and end up working instead of gambling but that’s because I don’t gamble.
Then no one will know how you define each. Get ready for now unnecessary discussions.
