csbronit@georgetakei Everyone needs to stop calling these “entitlements.” We paid for them our whole lives. It is our money!
Scuderia Dellaquila@csbronit @georgetakei Why yes I personally feel entitled to collect on money from a system I was forced to pay into and am still forced to contribute to. But yes it is wrong to term these systems entitlement.
Steve Popovich@scuderiadellaquila @csbronit @georgetakei yes, exactly...technically they could be called "entitlements" because, having paid into them for so many years, we are eminently entitled to them. It's unfortunate that the term is freighted with so much unwanted baggage these days.
