He’s a defeatist, that’s why.

Nah. He's right about entitlements. Just bring up cutting or means-testing them around here, and watch the greybeards squawk.

means-testing

So, if I have the foresight to self-finance my retirement, I get to get screwed out of the SS I've been forced, against my will, to pay into my whole life? You're making retirement planning a little tough there. I wonder how much income I'll have when I have to stop working. Maybe I should just work my whole life? Would that be good for you, too?

Means-testing entitlements that we have been FORCED to pay into from day one (I started working at 16) just because now, at 52, I’ve become successful due to hard work and not spending beyond my means is nothing more than wealth distribution socialist crap talk.

I’d be ashamed to even think it’s viable.
