@VeroniqueB99 That is one vote, against millions.

@VeroniqueB99 Yes. I contributed my money into Social Security for 45 years. I am “entitled” to get my money back. That’s entitlement, Elon.
Simple.
You are not “entitled” to mess with it. -

Your one vote against hundreds of millions of Elon's $$$.
Which of those do you think politicians will give more consideration to when making decisions?
In a better world than our current one, such money would never be allowed to influence politics.

@VeroniqueB99 water can be seen as entitlements but if you look at UK, privatizing water has resulted in the system squeezed for profit till it collapses. Medicare is better than lepers lining the sidewalks. Social Security is better than seniors dying homeless on the streets. Libertarianism is just Feudalism with a new name. Feudalism died for good reasons.

@VeroniqueB99 *I* am. I'm way more angry than a European should be.
America? not *nearly* angry enough.
They need to be France-in-1789 levels of angry.

@VeroniqueB99 They ARE entitlements. That's the term used for govt earmarks that are outside of budgetary discretion. That's intentional, to prevent Congress from cutting them. Congress wants an aircraft carrier? They can't use Grandma's pension or healthcare to pay for it.

@VeroniqueB99 The worst thing about is that he’s just a plain billionaire idiot, not even an elected idiot. He has absolutely no qualifications to change anything about our government or its services. Well, now that I think about it, neither does the guy who somehow claims he was elected to the White House.
yup
