Thomas weren't entitlements put in place through an evolving consensus? Therefore isn't it somewhat sophisticated to say that 'force' is being used to make you (affluent in comparison to the needy) give to those who are 'entitled' Isn't it a cop out to say, in effect, " well these folks can be taken care of by individual charity". If not the state then who? Or are we back (about) to trickle down again? I realise that not all are needy, but many are. I have been struck, in reading Churchill's 'Great Contemporaries' how the more progressive English Tories of an earlier era saw it as their task to try to improve the lot of the poor. The American Dream has it that anyone can somehow pull themselves up by their bootstraps. Some do, of course, but it is a comfortable position to take from the right side of the tracks.
