However, you just made my point for me. To you, your father is entitled to his Social Security benefits because of what he went through. The charity has now turned into an entitlement. No longer do the benefits represent the donations of the youth who are able to give up part of their paycheck for the care of the elderly. Now the benefits represent a right, something that belongs to the elderly by nature of their very being. There is no charity involved, just an abstract idea called The Great Society, i.e. government.

You make SS sound like an evil plot and the word 'entitlement' turns into a curse word when you post.
