    "Entitlement is a Core Value"
    And this is why the Congress is currently having to deal with this Fiscal Cliff. The Spending glut of the WWII vets and then the Baby Boom generation's poor financial management skills (in government, at least) have bankrupted the country. And you all wonder why we Gen Xers are grumpy, cynical and don't want to save those entitlements that will fiscally implode about 2 years before we qualify for any of them.
