Amplify this:
Social Security and Medicare are NOT entitlements.
They are EARNED BENEFITS.
We paid taxes to Social Security and Medicare for decades. Our employers paid in. Self-employed workers paid DOUBLE.
Take the cap off for those earning above $176,000. Make it fair, and solvent.

The problem is raiding the money to benefit people that didn’t earn it.
CORPORATE TAX LOOPHOLES are entitlements.
Then widowed single parents, like me, would still be getting SS to help support our family while my kid attends college full-time (and works. And is on Dean's List.)
Entitlement: a right to benefits specified by law or contract.
SSA is a contract with America. An entitlement.
Welfare programs are “needs based” programs based only on need, not by contract.
Those who have not paid enough into the social security funds (or for sufficient period of time) may not receive benefits.
