[in hoc signo vinces]

Pretty big stretch drawing an equivocation between a government policy of entitlement to spur economic development and that of a "personal" choice to be accountable for one's welfare in life.

So, I am not seeing your point. Sorry, chief.

government policy of entitlement to spur economic development

Not a stretch at all. Instead of limiting the taxpayers entitlement liability to our own country, the "free traders" take it a giant step forward and give entitlement benefits to the whole world. The American taxpayer is doomed, and it affects our economy significantly.
