I don't receive any handouts and don't want any. Over the course of my working career I have paid way more than the average person in income taxes, social security, and the Medicare/Medicaid fund. If Marcia thinks she has been carrying me on her back she is quite mistaken.

Over the course of my working career I have paid way more than the average person in income taxes, social security, and the Medicare/Medicaid fund. During this recession, I have been unable to pay myself a salary since last March, but I am not collecting any unemployment benefits - nor have I ever done so. Can you say the same thing?

Go look up "entitlement" in the dictionary...
