I get mine.... and most people would say if Uncle Sam is so indulgent, why should guilt stop me? Small government is dead in this country and even conservatives are OPPOSED to cutting benefits, as the military retirees uproar revealed. Congress promptly restored them.

Thank you for being honest. The “go-to” excuse for nearly every check recipient that is right-of-center that I’ve debated here and elsewhere seems to be “as long as we spend one dollar on X, Y, or Z, don’t come looking to cut MY check”
Check-receiving “conservatives” are never going to vote to cut their own checks in significant enough numbers to make a difference.
We have to go over the cliff where all checks stop.
You have taken the first step in being honest about it.
