[QUOTE="donna723, post: 454812, member: 1883"] DDD, I agree with you 100%! And now that I'm retired, I'll tell you something else that burns me up! If I hear Social Security and Medicare referred to as "entitlement programs" one more time ... I might just lose my reputation forbeing a non-violent person! This makes it sound like a handout, a giveaway! I worked and paid in to those programs all my adult life! Nobody is "handing" me anything I haven't already paid for! And Medicare certainly is not a handout! I PAY for it, and I pay over twice as much now for my Medicare coverage as I did for my medical insurance when I was working ... and I have less coverage now than what my group insurance at work covered! My kids are now 35 and 30 and both of them have worked and paid in to the system since they were 16. And neither one of them will probably ever get a dime of that back! [/QUOTE]
