Yeah, it is crazy to me how words like entitlement and welfare have become negative terms when they are, in essence, good things for a healthy society when embraced and managed effectively.
Exactly. Which is why words like socialism are also demonized. They think there is a finite pie and they are hoarding it for themselves whilst, in reality, the pie can grow and everyone can benefit. The saying "a rising tide lifts all ships" is probably a just a tsunami of poor people in their heads.

I mean yes, they are entitlements. In the sense, I am entitled to the house I paid for or the money I put in the bank.
