I don't consider SS and Medicare/caid, "largesse" or an "entitlement." We pay into it our entire working life. (If it were run correctly - and not borrowed against - it would not cost tax payers any extra.)

I also don't consider a student loan, mortgage deduction, or any other tax deduction in the same light. He's talking about programs where you receive $$, which is not specifically funded by the person receiving the handout. (Welfare, foodstamps, etc.)

Please keep comments civil and brief. Obscene, profane, abusive and off-topic comments will be deleted. Repeat offenders will be blocked.
