That's why they are entitlements. What is NOT an entitlement is welfare of any and all sort; those are not paid for, therefore recipients and not entitled.
Government should keep a firewall around the fund. It should not be used as Billions for Ukraine or any other purpose. Many other countries protect their low-income, disabled, and seniors much better than US. Trickle down economy was disproven decades ago.
They use “our” money to buy themselves votes, or out & out bribe people the way things are going during this administration….No wonder nobody trusts or has any respect for them.
Entitlement? The last time I checked, I've been paying into these programs for my whole life. Mismanagement is not my fault! Pushing dates back on benefits seems like the Fed's are hoping I expire before they need to pay up!
Both of these gentlemen are young & don’t fully know or understand either program!!! They need to do real research, not google, and get the real facts!!!
Govt needs honor what they have promised: the social security benefit and Medicare. No.change should be made for those who have been paying the tax for decades.
Entitlements, has two definitions US ENGLISH: a government program that provides benefits to any individual meeting certain eligibility requirements. or the belief that one is inherently deserving of privileges or special treatment
Where were the alarm bells when funds we being taken and not put back into the program. Now they wanna sound alarm bells that we are running out of funds. Put back all the money that was taken out over the past decades and that should solve the money issues
Please get better informed when presenting topics that you share with the public. Neither of these programs are entitlements. This are programs that we worked for and invested in.
Don't you TOUCH my SSDI. I worked from the day I turned 16 (was the first legal day) did not become disabled til in my 50s. Monthly checks are no where near what I made, and I was living almost paycheck to almost paycheck. No gucci, no iphone. PAY YOUR TAXES, I did
Well ,, Bush tried to change it it in 2000 to a private low yield Equity account. But a certain party started screaming “ he’s throwing grandma off the cliff “. Most Americans didn’t want it in the first place when they implemented,
Everyone I know has no problem working until they die. They will sacrifice relaxation and pleasure so that they can see their kids/grandkids not have to work. The older generations (older then 40) are selfless!!!
Those of use that were a part of the “Social Contract” of deposits to Social Security for 40 years MUST we return on that money invested in the fund. We DID invest in something - the government’s program. The truth is that MOST people would not save on their own and the Social Security is a back stop that gives a base for last years. Even wealthy persons who gave money to Social Security should get a return on their money - even though it is not their primary retirement funds. The bigger problem is the birth rate drop, and the phasing out of employment due to technology innovation The dollars coming in will not cover the cost.
*Entitlements* WTAF! Working citizens were made to pay into social security funds! They were not asked or given a choice! Their checks were automatically deducted X% from their paychecks! How does that qualify as an entitlement? It is an insurance every working American has paid for. FICA! Is the *Federal Insurance Contributions Act*
ENTITLEMENTS????? You need to report TRUE facts!!! THESE AREN'T ENTITLEMENTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WE PAID FOR THESE!!! learn THE FACTS BEFORE YOU REPORT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
what about the $34 trillion. And that's just the principal payment, what about interest? The debts gotta take a toll and show up somewhere, right? So, why not our social security?
It is already bankrupt. There is zero in the FED savings account. It is pay as you go from the shrinking taxpaying base. Your pension is now in Ukraine.
The states should take over ssi ,why is it that in Europe we can retire at 55 and can actually enjoy our retirement,here we work till 67 or whatever and retire then spend the rest of our lives going to doctors appointments.when we have family reunions all we do is sit around and talk about our doctors appointments
Entitlements, US ENGLISH: a government program that provides benefits to any individual meeting certain eligibility requirements. NOT: the belief that one is inherently deserving of privileges or special treatment
Excuse me but Medicare is not an entitlement. We all paid into this and had no option to opt out. We are getting a pay back for our investment. If the government thinks they will get away with not paying to those who paid in they might want to think again.
It's funny that the programs we contributed to over the last 40 years is nearly empty. Maybe if they stopped taking away our money, there would be funds to receive.
All of you are forgetting the federal government borrowed 5 Trillionof private money 3 by clinton an 2 T Earlier my wife was disabled and could not get onecent she was 62 and we got lawyer but
It is not an ENTITLEMENT plan when you’ve PAID into it for 40 YEARS!
@@danialhillmann5374 correct,,, they did not ask. My dad( born in 1919) was still upset about it in the 70’s when he was getting ready to retire.
These are NOT ENTITLEMENTS. We paid into these programs.

Agreed
The leaches in DC spent our rerirement funds long ago. Now it is all a shell game.
Right I’ve paid for 35 years this is bs!!

Then why are we still paying for it and it is not an entitlement program when I am forced to pay for it
I've paid it's not entitlement ‼️‼️
WE PAYD FOR IT IS NOT AN ENTITLEMENT THIS IS OUR MONIES
The problem is we elect dishonest people who spend more than they have.
Correction: "...who spend more than we have." lol
and they raise their own "wage" evertime a new lot get into power...talk about human corruption
They use “our” money to buy themselves votes, or out & out bribe people the way things are going during this administration….No wonder nobody trusts or has any respect for them.
The government needs to pay back the $$$$$$$$ they took from Social Security!!! 😡😡
It’s not an entitlement!!! It’s our money we were forced to invest
Government Keep your sticky fingers out of the social security pot
Entitlement? The last time I checked, I've been paying into these programs for my whole life. Mismanagement is not my fault! Pushing dates back on benefits seems like the Fed's are hoping I expire before they need to pay up!
That’s exactly what the government is hoping for.
WOW, he sounds like the "woke folk" clueless of the truth. THESE ARE NOT ENTITLEMENTS!!!!
Both of these gentlemen are young & don’t fully know or understand either program!!! They need to do real research, not google, and get the real facts!!!
It was a fund paid into not a dam ENTITLEMENT
They are not entitlements, it money we have put into these, and should get the money back.
Govt needs honor what they have promised: the social security benefit and Medicare. No.change should be made for those who have been paying the tax for decades.
It's not an entitlement when I've been paying for since I was 15 years old. Dam criminal, big g. Better give me my money when I retire.
You will own nothing and be happy.
Why should we have to work longer because the government has wasted our money?
they look at us as worker bee's,
@@danialhillmann5374 Agreed, but what can anyone do about it, it sickens me to no end.
@@lonortiz9675leave
I had my first taxpaying job at the age of fourteen!! I paid for this!
We paid into it.The lawmakers shouldn't never dipped into it to begin with.These politicians ought to go to prison
That freaking figures just when I started drawing!
God is still healer,Savior and provider. Lord of Lord's and Kings of Kings.
I have a problem with calling Social Security and Medicare “entitlements”. We do, after all, pay for them like we do insurance.
Entitlements, has two definitions
US ENGLISH:

the belief that one is inherently deserving of privileges or special treatment

Thanks!
It's designed as a Supplement! Not designed to be a sole source of income!
This person is not wording this properly, and making those who legitimately receive Social Security, Disability!
These are not entitled benefits. We have been paying for them forever
Absolutely 💯
Medicare or medicaid is charging me almost $200.00 monthly, 🤬👎🏻
Does not leave enough to live on !!
Well ,, Bush tried to change it it in 2000 to a private low yield Equity account. But a certain party started screaming “ he’s throwing grandma off the cliff “. Most Americans didn’t want it in the first place when they implemented,
Why do we have to pay taxes on our social security checks.
It's not entitlement we worked and paid into it! They've just misused it!
So, what's their plan to give our $ back to us that we've had taken out of our paychecks for our all our working years?

I thought it’s because the government is borrowing from social security and not paying it back
Birth rate drop. Planned Parenthood needs to subsidise SOCIAL SECURITY.
