Feeling Entitled

If there were ever an adjective that conservatives would like to disemploy from the English language, it is expressed when someone declares that they are entitled to something. People feel it is the government's job to do everything for them, whether they deserve it or not, are worthy of such largesse, have made a contribution back to the world, or have earned an honest dollar through out their entire lives. Some would accuse such spoiled brats as being too imbued with individual assertiveness and self-esteem for their own good or societal good. Actually, any honest, self-respecting individual would never be so impolite as to ask for more than he has coming, or to be grabby when he has no right to be. People, especially a certain breed of selfish joiners that are moochers and parasites, without self-esteem and dignified pride, are not ashamed and embarrassed while demanding public assistance before they have tried everything they can on their own, to support themselves. What is the individual American entitled too? He should be liberated to work, love, start a family, pray and mingle with others (or not) as he sees fit in pursuit of life, liberty, property and happiness. What he is entitled to beyond that is negotiable and should be minimally granted even if he is entitled to assistance. Self-help is the way to go. What is he not entitled to? He cannot enslave others, or serve as their slave. He cannot fail to individuate. He cannot let others support him, and he cannot blame others for his failures.
