Entitlements. That is the big word Washington uses nowadays to lump all the State giveaways Congress can come up with. There is medicaid, food stamps, farm subsidies, school lunches, state aid, and on and on.
My gripe is that what used to be a Trust where monies taken from the employer and the worker were secure until one retired and drew that monthly check, are now in the General Fund. Congress in all it's wisdom decided that it was a great source of ready cash for them to spend and they have really spent it. Now they are calling those Social Security checks "Entitlements".
Think about this---when you are working, monies are withheld from your pay and matched with funds from your employer and sent to Washington to be used for paying the retired folks. So, you can see that to call your Social Security check an entitlement is foolish and down right insulting to the working man as well as the retiree sense half of it is yours anyway!....Medicineman!
My blog will attempt to be a source of accurate information on any subject put forward. My approach to any question will come from the conservative, freedom loving,and Christian. My background includes history, medicine and military. Welcome!
