Just by scanning the text, it was obvious there were several errors. And they are just the ones I quickly noticed, I am sure that there are many more.

1. Medicare is NOT an entitlement. The people that paid into it were to receive it back as a retirement investment that the government was overseeing. Therein lies the problem LBJ and Clinton both raided the money from the SS fund. LBJ used it to fund his social program for the welfare recipients based on the belief that if we support them, they will become outstanding citizens. Instead, it did the opposite, they became dependant on the system thereby becoming dependant on the Democratic party to provide for them for generations to come. Clinton used the SS funds to pay off the national debt. thereby making himself look good.
2. The Dems have made it available to any and all. This makes those that have never paid a dime into it eligible for it. But those of us that are citizens must be eligible to receive it, by working for a certain amount of quarters. If you don’t contribute by working that set time, then you don’t get anything. But those that come to this country are automatically eligible without having to pay into the program. My (very liberal) mother was furious that those that were illegal immigrants were getting more SS than she was, while she worked for decades and contributed to the SS fund, they paid nothing. They have also expanded the program to anyone that has a handicap including minors. They get to double dip the program. Get your child a diagnosis of ADHD, then you get government money every month for them, and then on top of that, the government pays you to care for them. This is in addition to their welfare check.

2. Paul was not thrown into the water, he was thrown in jail. Jonah was thrown overboard at night, to be swallowed by the large fish.
