You are absolutely right. I have no idea what conservatives are like. I am continually surprised by the depth of conservatism I see here. There is the right, the far right, and now I see the ultra far right. SS is not a deflection. I was saying what SS used to be and what it is now. I put a large amount of money into it in my lifetime and the baby boomers did too. Now we want our money back in retirement. Yes it is an ENTITLEMENT in capital letters, not the entitlement as people use in Medicaid or food stamps, which you would call gifts. Also I paid FICA taxes for my Medicare, and I deserve that as an ENTITLEMENT. The problem with that is that the govmt didn't foresee how expensive it would be especially in Medicaid where too many are living longer or near poverty level.
