I don’t have health insurance because I do not agree with gambling.

That is the entirety of my side of this conversation to you so far.

You are telling me that I’m wrong to believe what I do and you seem very invested in doing so.

I don’t want to walk away from this conversation because I feel like it might be rude and that you might actually need someone to talk to.

Is everything going well in your life?

I don’t have health insurance because I do not agree with gambling.

That is, itself, gambling. I’ve proven that by *posting the definition of the word “gambling.”

Again, for reference:

That is the entirety of my side of this conversation to you so far.

Except for when you tried to change the subject to unemployment insurance, crossing the road, or my usage of quotation marks.

You are telling me that I’m wrong to believe what I do and you seem very invested in doing so.

I have told you - repeatedly - that your “beliefs” are clearly (based on everything you keep saying) based on a complete lack of understanding as to what insurance is, what it’s for, and how it works as well as not really knowing the definition or the word “gambling”. If you heard something other than what I’ve said, that’s on you.

I don’t want to walk away from this conversation because I feel like it might be rude and that you might actually need someone to talk to.

Oh, more ad hominem attacks and deflection. Seems like you’re all out of arguments.

You define gambling as anything that has an outcome.

Ya know, I’ve said this repeatedly, but you seem to be having memory problems, so I’ll repeat it:

I didn’t define anything. The dictionary did.
