Entitlements for the Rich, Conservatives, and Republicans
I am one of those who has always been against entitlements because they create dependency.
However I find it interesting, all those who argue against entitlements are actually the biggest users of entitlements.
Mortgage tax deductions for homes up to a million dollars and tax deductions for capital gains on property give the rich more handouts than the average apartment dweller or the poor.
So if we want to eliminate the entitlements, how come the rich, conservative, republicans never mention elimination of these tax deductions. Tax deductions of these nature are handouts, under a different name. A rose by any other name is still a rose.
