    Tell that to the right wing. There is no entitlement to the common offense or the general warfare.

    I think trump is referring to earned benefits such as social security and medicare

    We should kick the able bodied bums off welfare first

    Labor should have recourse to unemployment compensation, simply for being, Naturally unemployed.

    The term "entitlement" is just one more lie by the fanatical right,
    who would rather spend every available dime on "defense," which
    is projecting the American Empire around the globe.

    When Trump took the oath of office there were 2,814k employees in the Federal work force.
    Now there are 2,789k employees in the Federal Workforce. GDP is up, he is working to close the trade gap. That should help, but, it won't fill in the big gaping hole in the middle that no one wants to address.

    There is no will in Congress to cut entitlements. And they are cowards, they have no will, because WE have no will to cut entitlement. We will cut entitlements as soon as WE are determined to do so.

    Very limited compensation

    Today many people think they are entitled to do nothing till the “right” job comes along

    No matter how long that takes

    And we cannot afford to support those people any longer

    Exactly what I have been saying since Trump announced his candidacy in 2015.

    But now you all seem to have forgotten what he is. You have memories like that of goldfish.

    Your proposal has the effect of also threatening to destroy SS. Weather or not thats intended is irrelevant.
