A risk assessment is a normal part of gambling. You’re just describing games, like the one you’re playing now to rationalize your gambling with your own life by avoiding getting any sort of health insurance.
They are when you bet something on the outcome— ya know, gambling… like how you risk both your financial future and your life when you choose to not have health insurance.
Insurance is by definition not gambling. It is only indemnity. The reality is that without insurance you are gambling that you’ll get to keep the money you didn’t spend on insurance and not be financially ruined.
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.

Do you have health insurance? Well guess what, then you are paying for it already, only more than with universal health care.

Sure sounds like gambling to me…

That’s not how health insurance works. You would never get more than your medical costs and would almost always get less.

The entirety of our economic structure is gambling.
All of it.

You’re gambling that there’s someone willing to pay that amount for your labor. The stakes? Your financial security.

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.
