If you are a Libertarian and hold liberty as your core value, why do you not believe in universal healthcare? Nothing impacts liberty more than sickness and death.

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.

Oh, you're just a troll. I get it now.
I’m not a troll.
I like your username!
That is working.
Not if you lose your bet that anyone is willing to pay you your desired wage. Then it’s unemployment because you gambled and lost. And even if they do agree, it’s just luck that you won— but it’s still a gamble.
Unemployment insurance is insurance too so I wouldn’t apply for that as a matter of principle.
Good thing it’s typically mandated by state law. You don’t have a choice when it’s deducted from your paycheck in most cases, and you’re automatically enrolled. (In some states and situations, it’s paid for by the employers). Whether you ever take advantage of that is another matter.
However, that’s irrelevant. All you’ve done here is demonstrate poor decision-making skills, and a profound misunderstanding of the concepts of both insurance and gambling.
I already said I wouldn’t apply for it.
Then that’s foolish, but not really relevant to this discussion about health insurance… Unless your point is to illustrate that you have no real idea about what insurance is or how it works.
My point here is something else entirely, but you wouldn’t understand.
Since you haven’t managed to make your point in nearly a dozen comments on this subject…. I doubt that…
Unless you’re saying that you wasted all this time discussing something other than your point, in which case… why?
Coming from the person who doesn’t “get” what insurance is or the meaning of the word “gambling” means until I had to post the definition from a dictionary.
