Yes, you are right. It was. It was meant to be sarcastic, a jab at a small segment of people who have no respect for the working class. It was inappropriate, and not a reflection of my true beliefs. Particularly considering that I swing a mop at a small factory for a living.
Walmart, any employer, should have the right not to be forced to offer insurance...but an unfortunate side effect of that decision is people either have to turn to government programs for health care, or continue to clog up emergency rooms with non-emergency conditions.
You don't have the right to proselytize to smokers. You really don't give a damn about them; you just want to feel as though you have some kind of "power"
Incorrect. I'm not seeking any power over anyone. I'm seeking to share my experience, so that others may grow from it. People can take or leave it as they CHOOSE...I'm not going to storm into anyone's house if they fire up a cigarette. But why is it so terrible to say that you think some action is a bad idea? Why is it so bad to want to share experience? Isn't that the basis of education?
How about I begin to berate you and to tell YOU how you must live and behave? You'll eat that up with a spoon, now won't you; n00b? :-)
Tell me how I MUST live...that's unacceptable. Make some suggestions that might help me lead a happier, healthier life...no problem!
When posting a sarcastic comment ( though your post was NOT really "sarcastic at all; it was vile, inappropriate, and disgusting; not to mention beyond the pale! )to a thread, one is supposed to end it with : /sarcasm
When posters don't, especially when they are brand new, as you are, everyone is going to assume that you meant exactly what you said.
"Universal health care" is SOCIALISM!
I pay through the nose ( and no it is NOT because I am a smoker; thank your very much )for mine. You don't even want to hear about my deductible.
What...you don't think that smokers know about the hazards; real and made up? GIVE ME AND THE REST OF US A BLEEDING BREAK!
You gave your opinion, you got slammed for it, and you apparently can't take the back and forth here.
