Its a fact they should not be used a political game or bullshit efficiency attacks were not doing our jobs as citizens if we let bribed politicians get away with these type of fraud attacks on our safety net old age insurance programs !
I started this in February but it was delayed for other urgent craziness. This is dedicated to YOU. The protesters,the voters, the callers, the organizers, the lawyers and staff, the supportive businesses and our former allies who encourage us to save democracy. https://youtu.be/hX2Mg4Xk0ZU?si=lZ4ivFggDYr_YzMt
Trump’s tariff schemes coupled with his ignorance and his arrogance are destroying the American economy. In his commitment to an economic death-spiral, Trump ignores financial experts, our most faithful allies, the Constitution, the law and the courts. The majority of Americans want him impeached.
Well, because we pay directly for them they are in fact entitlements. The GQP just use the word entitlement in a way that makes it sound like welfare. Which it ain't.
I’ e seen this meme a thousand times. Doesn’t anyone understand what an entitlement is?
It means something you are ENTITLED to and in this case you are ENTITLED to a social security check and Medicare because you PAID into that system. That makes you ENTITLED to a benefit.
Sheesh.
But they are entitlements. Stop debating twisted Republican talking points with yourself. Realize they did a propaganda campaign to twist the word's meaning, and you're falling into that semantical trap. SS is an entitlement. We own it. We paid for it. No apologies.
They are, though. You paid into the system for a certain length of time and as a result you are entitled to those funds. They’re yours. The government is not entitled to them: you are.
Confusing, I know. If I have paid into the system for 50 years, I would say I am entitled to my benefits. GOP was made entitlements a bad thing so I think we are running from the word. It is like the word morphed in meaning.

It used to piss me off, too, until someone told me that
Entitlement is not a dirty word, Steve.
If you think it is, go ahead and rip up the *title* to that car or home you paid off.

Sheesh.
I keep trying to inform folks, too.
The opposition has successfully convinced wayyyy too many Americans that “entitlement” is a dirty word.
Is the title to your car or house an embarrassment? Ofc not. Neither is entitlement to benefits from programs you’ve participated in.
