Believe that "forced participtation" is an "entitlement"?


Yes.. or

No..
 
Tough question. Depend on your definition of "entitlement."

Welfare is generally accepted as entitlements, but so is Social Security. One is a hand out and the other is not. One is forced participation and one is not. Health Care is an entirely different animal.

Forced participation requires a law to be passed.

I say "forced participation" is not an entitlement.

I agree with you when it comes to Health care. That is certainly no entitlement to me. Just leave me and my policy alone. I don't see where in the consitutionit says I have to pay for a policy for someone who doesn't want one.

But people are morally "entitled" to Social Security because they paid into it with their own money. And legally they are forced to participate because of law.
 
What is the point of the thread? Why is a question this blank in the "politics" section?

so you'd have something to bitch about now that you baggy eyed commie candidate is going to get his ass handed to him.. kerry on.

A law WAS passed Obama Care forces us to pay or be "fined".

And that is outrageous!
 
Both are burdens on the tax payer in different ways.

they sure are. so why don't we abolish them and let the citizen do with as they will with their own money. don't force participation and then bitch about "entitlements" you're not "entitled" unless you've been given a choice. I thought demoncraps were all about "choice"?

Well see about "my candidate" but a few of yours have already got their ass handed to them and one even dropped out.

Anyways, can you answer the question? Why post such an open question in the politics section with no context? Are you to stupid to post it in the correct area of the forums?
