Time to end those damned entitlement programs

• The entitlement to call rape, pillage and plunder “free enterprise.”

• The entitlement to complain about “welfare queens” and “freeloaders.”

• The entitlement to call the earned benefits of others “entitlements.”

• The entitlement to lecture the peasants on self-reliance.

• The entitlement to buy elections and own politicians.

• The entitlement to low or no taxes.

• The entitlement to own virtually all major radio and TV “news” sources.

• The entitlement to define what “news” is.

• The entitlement to let others die and be maimed in wars for profit.

• The entitlement to be barbarians in the so-called “land of the free.”


Please feel entitled to add to this list of “entitlements.”
