Entitlement. You are correct. Now let me ask you--
Where did entitlement programs in government originate from? Was it from a group of people that believed you were born with certain rights, but had to WORK HARD for privileges?
Or was it from a group of people that believed "everyone should get a trophy"-- the buzz words (along with terms like entitlement programs) were words like equality and equity. Only, they don't preach true equality-- or equity-- they preach entitlements based on race or creed.
I bet those same people, probably like yourself, believe that things like free Healthcare are entitlements.
Entitlements. Man. Did you ever hit the nail square on the head.
