entitlement is believing you have a right to something.
what is it you think I have a right to?
My argument is mostly about how those who think they deserve more money, benefits, bonuses, toys, cars, boats, housing, healthcare, smartphones...whatever, typically do not. The only reason they scream about it, is because they know they can vote in someone who will steal it for them. Problem is, when you do that, you actually make things worse for just about everyone, but especially those who get the 'benefit'.
I live in Idaho. Minimum wage is still at the federal rate. Due to the labor shortages, you'd be hard pressed to find a job that pays under $14/hr right now. Yet inflation has taken all those wage 'increases' right away and now people are mad that prices are so high. it's worse.
I'm about as anti-entitlement as they come.
