Social Security, Medicare are considered entitlements,Ones that are paid for by the recipients. For the most part these people worked hard all their lives and paid without complaint for these benefits.So why are they called entitlements? Which by the way would not be in trouble if the government would put all of the stolen SS money back in the fund. The stealing started soon after SS was established and every President since has used it illegally or at least immorally. What surprised me was military benefits are entitlements.How screwy is that.
SSI for illegals,Welfare,food stamps ,college grants are not paid for directly from pay check.
I think people using this word as a detriment to belonging to a cause is so wrong. College grants should be used more carefully .Grants should only be granted for a specified goal only and if the goal is not reached they should have to pay it back..Education grants should be revoked if the grade point average is not at least maintained at a C or above.If You are arrested for drugs or drinking under age or even legal age then they should be revoked. Grants to other countries for some obscrue project should be stopped. Grants to count woodchucks or little fish in a certain area should be stopped. Any grant that is not for education or to make people's health and life better. Grants to find out how many people have grants should be stopped.
Why isn't the hiring of over 15,000 new employees to over see our health care system by the IRS considered entitlements? Why isn't retirement for all elected officials considered entitlements? They never earned them. The Presidents Czars should be entitlements(and I mean any president) All of these should be stopped before attacking the elderly and the disabled who have paid thei money all their lives while these other people have no investment. Military benefits for cripes sake Why isn't laying your life on the line a way of earning benefits without being grouped by politicians that need to fight about something.
The liberals and conservatives should wake up and smell coffee, The people that wanta sociatist society should wake up and smell coffeee. This not about who is right or wrong in an election year. This is about the Tea Party wanting smaller government. The Tea party does not want old people or disabled to live on the streets or starve. They want a smaller more efficient government, not hiring more people to shuffle papers and make decisions about which they know nothing about.Our new health care system will be the same as calling a computer tech in some country that barely speaks English and has to read from a list of steps to tell you what is wrong and what you should or should not do about it. Makes me feel that every one has my best interests at heart.
