You've fixated on the incorrect word. The operational word here that supports my assertion is "implied". As I said, your post IMPLIES that her statement is in contrasting conflict with yours (i.e., that she advocates or supports the contrasting viewpoint). To imply means to suggest a certain thing to be the case without explicitly stating it, and that's exactly what you did.
And I'm sorry, but you're still wrong in that viewpoint. This is entire debate not about political persuasion so much as it is about logical interpretation of the English language. If you're having issues with that, I would suggest you not take your frustrations out on me. I scored in the 99th percentile on the English / logical reasoning portion when I took the GMAT, so I don't believe that I am significantly off base here.
I think we already covered this, no need for you to stutter unless the inevitable 'big one" is in progress.

That isn't anybody's cross to bear except those that pursue their dreams with their own work to support it.

I'm not stuttering. And you're still wrong. I expect you'll also continue to be wrong long after I have left this thread in search of a more productive use of my time.

Your idea of productive time may make you go blind, to each his own I suppose.
“We see it as an entrepreneurial bill, a bill that says to someone, if you want to be creative and be a musician or whatever, you can leave your work, focus on your talent, your skill, your passion, your aspirations because you will have health care."
Meanwhile, in India, Brazil and China, the people are working their butts off to crank out goods and services, and these non-productive Pelosi-bots will be crying, "Why are our jobs going overseas."
You're kidding, right?? Jobs are going overseas because Americans wouldn't work for the wages these American corporations want to pay workers, as little as possible, about enough to keep them eating one bowl a day of rice and beans in Brazil or one bowl of rice/curry in India. And China, a Marxist country has a few perks for its workers, although the hours are long, such as dorms to live in, cafeterias. That's why the jobs are going overseas.
The people behind Pelosi are too well educated to need factory work, so I doubt they'd be crying such drivel. Some of the nonsense people, such as you, write in this forum is ignorant to the point of being pathetic.
Business has to either cut costs or perish, that is why they are going overseas. It's a global economy, if they don't stay competitive they will go bankrupt.
The only problem I see with that is the question as to who qualifies. I mean, everyone can claim to be an artist, but does everyone have the talent and patience to make it as an artist?
In Germany they have had a special health care and social security system for artists since 1981, however one has to prove one is an artist, has no other sources of income etc.
Brazil must be pretty great then. Taking our manufacturing jawbs and having UHC?
Just because someone has their health care taken care of for them is not an excuse to be a lazy bum. I seriously doubt the leaders in the Brazilian government are encouraging their people to pursue unproductive hobbies and live off the largesse of the taxpayers.
We see in other countries were education and health care is free, why is it such a problem in this country?

Why is this sooo bad?
