I’m really surprised at you guys! 😳??? Whenever I see this “entitlement” stuff circulating and social media, I have to offer my take on it… I say, they ARE entitlements. And only those who paid into it, are entitled to it. They are a “retirement plan,” (not benefits), paid in advance by hard-working, LEGAL CITIZENS. They are not however, a gift, charity, welfare, freebies, or handouts. There are millions today, who possess an “entitlement mentality,” always looking for a handout, however, they are NOT entitled; thinking, and wishing does not make it so. And the communists in our government, that are all too happy to encourage them; feeling free to redistribute hard earned taxpayer money, need to be held accountable, for jeopardizing the future of those of us who have faithfully accepted, and counted on the plan that was laid out for us.
People do not understand how shameful it is to live on government assistance. It's humiliating. I encourage every man out there to work hard to able to adequately fend for himself and his family.
Easier said than done. Here's the problem. Men speak in general and think there are simple problems to solve. We should not put more pain for men only because they ought to deal with it. If you really care about men stop forcing this work yourself to death advice. It makes people more crazy and crazy like PBD.
@@MinifigNewsguy Such a weak mentality! Life is hard, not a joke. You gotta work to feed yourself. Our skillsets are different, others would have it easy, others would not. However, every man out there need to work hard enough to make a meaning out his life. If one would have to work himself to death, then so be it!!!!

This is a very mediocre age because of those types of belief systems. I wouldn't be stuck in the rat-race now and with all that frustration, go to TH-cam and spend more time learning about entrepreneurship and you won't be on these types of videos complaining that life is so hard. I'm not cruel, I grew up in a house of horrors and was severely abused, I had every excuse to be a failure and to hate myself. Not popular but I was told people it's not what happened to us, but it's what we do with it. Zone for yourself and I agree, don't work yourself to death, work productively but for yourself. Please don't give that lazy ass advice ever again.
Not really because people who have been working for 15-20 years and then all the sudden lose their jobs for a reason have been paying into their unemployment and welfare benefits through taxes too.
Thank you! Somehow, people just don’t understand the difference. Every time I see these posts going around social media, I have to give my take on it. I was left speechless by this conversation!! 😳
@@cynthiaroses4272 welfare or social programs do not really make a difference as they are unconstitutional. I don't see the word insurance, healthcare and education written under the enumerated powers in the constitutional amendments. Also, the moment those programs were created, the politicians would use it to fund or subsidize other things, likely to win others through votes. FDR and LBJ have already succeeded in controlling the masses through these ponzi schemes.
Its wild how rabid boomers are about Social Security. Im a gen xer and I just figure Im never seeing anything from social security but boomers act like that is the end of the world. Its really fascinating
To what Myron was saying about modern women...I met this woman who was into the same music as I was and our first two dates were to rock concerts. I told her from the start that I was attracted to her and wanted to take her on a proper date. Turns out she was only going out with me for free concerts even though I made my intentions known. She gave me the "you're such a great friend" line. Now there are a lot of women out there who won't accept a coffee date because they think he's being cheap. They want and expect a 5 star restaurant on the first date. Men, take her on a coffee date and make her earn the expensive restaurants. Chances are a coffee date is all the investment in her you'll want to make.
Neither side should want an expensive first date because both should demand a real connection before investment like that. A smart woman should be suspicious of a man who is willing to spend a lot of money on a first date because it shows he doesn’t have any discernment or standards. He is either insecure and/or has a transactional view of relationships. And the same goes for the suspicion a man should have for a woman who wants an expensive first date. She is engaging in a level of transactionalism that shows she doesn’t respect herself or have any standards besides money
It’s very healthy to begin any interaction with the opposite sex assuming the worst of the individual based on a prior bad experience or exposure to misandrist/misogynist TikToks. This is the way to healthy relationships and thus, a healthy society.

These are good programs for those who fall in hard times or otherwise need assistance for a period of time until they can get back on their feet. This helps tons stay out of poverty. The issues is how people have become entitled to abuse these programs and live off of them for years and years or as long as possible which defeats the good & true purpose of them and let’s all those abusers have basic lives paid for them by the state without having to do any work. If they try to work or contribute to society, they’ll lose those benefits so they’re choosing to live a free basic life instead of trying to work and move themselves up to live better lives over time. This has also become a generational teaching in these families where the kids grow up on these programs and see how they work and believe it’s just how things are and don’t realize it’s an abuse of a system. If hard caps are placed on these programs with exceptions only for those who are seriously or permanently disabled and things of that severity and everyone else gets a few months or so to get back on their feet and start working again. But no, the Dems primarily have allowed these loopholes for abuse exist because they’ve bought them countless votes over the decades. They’ll never support time limit changes while they’re benefiting in elections from allowing the abuse. That’s how to solve it though.
Omgggg Myron nailed it at min 7:15 mark…I am woman and can totally agree that modern woman are entitled to the core. This is exactly what my bf and I talk about how bit**y the woman have become. It’s hard to even maintain friends now because most women think they are a gift to this planet, when they are nothing just pretty looking creatures
Any "government benefit", regardless what it is for or titled, is designed to create dependence on the government which equates to control over the recipient. When the government "saves" your money for your retirement, they actually do not save anything but instead tax people to pay for your retirement, including you (you do know your pension is taxed, right?) - the money "put aside" for your retirement is never put aside, but is spent, knowing this can be taken, yes, taken, from taxpayers to cover the money owed to the retiree - and if the government can not pay the retiree, then too bad, you're on your own. If you trust politicians then expect to be used, because that is the only thing politicians can and will do...
Exactly how much do you think ppl get in benefits a month? Just one person, who qualifies? And lets be clear here, about half of states wont grant individuals any benefits at all, and many wont give anything to men.... but you qualified for food stamps and cash addistance, how much do you think those are?
To some degree I agree with you about the dependance part. Even when you retire early, you can't draw those benefits you earned out right away w/o a penalty even though they've been using your money for YEARS...So even then you remain dependent on the govt regulation of benefits. ..and it's not even an entitlement program, it's just the law of the land..
@@manwomen7801 Two very separate questions, so two very separate answers: 1) So let the poor die of hunger? - what kind of society lets their poor die of hunger? - note; society, not government - it is society's responsibility to look after the vulnerable in that society, not the government's - and look at where the poor are "dying of hunger", and it is invariably Democrat run cities - not towns or rural areas, just Democrat cities - so there is the answer to the question "what kind of society lets their poor die of hunger?" 2) Why do you have the right to use loopholes in the corrupt system to get rich? - who is this "you"? - those who corrupt systems (create loopholes) to take advantage of people to get rich are what we used to call "scumbags", and since it is predominantly politicians who corrupt government systems to get rich... you finish the sentence....
29 turning 30 inna few and really glad i found this PBD Pod. Started to feel out of place in the world but watching some of your content showed I’m not far off
Its not that there shouldn't be any enitlement programs, its that you have to be carefull with them. You eventually run out of other people's money and some people are just OK not becoming independent and bettering themselves.
That was so fire and speaks to my life and family so much. I feel isolated from my family because I have now become the enemy. I am barely into the 150k area and they act like I am a millionaire
Great context, I learn a lot watching your videos. The global currency reset (GCR) as we know is imminent, the physical dollar will be useless and the current banking system is crashing, not even the IRA will be excluded. Put your funds off the banking system and have them regulated into the New Financial system (NFS) through the regulated crypto tokens that are backed up by precious metals like gold and silver.
The crypto market is highly profitable with an expert broker company like Anchorage, I got recommended to them and since then my financial life has been a success.
@@VicDamoneJr82 Amen! Ridiculous how easily people can cling onto people like this. They love him because he just says everything they want to hear. Its by design. The left have their little idols too but nothing like this.
As a recent fiancée, I thought I'd add a note that not all women take kind men for granted. My date stood out because he held (and still holds) the car door for me; I feel a wave of gratitude every time because I recognize that he's pampering me by doing that. When we go out to eat, yes, I generally expect him to pay, but we communicate to make sure we're on the same page and not putting him in a bind by doing so. For example, we made reservations at a nice place to try last week with my mother as it's a potential caterer for our wedding; the prices were a lot higher than our typical place, we had an extra person, and we anticipated ordering more items to test a variety of dishes. When I saw that, I immediately looked up at him and asked if I could give him cash beforehand so that he would still pay at the restaurant (we both enjoy that) but that it wouldn't come out of his pocket. We stategized beforehand. That's the type of thing that bring us together: we get ahead of potential problems even if it seems like a weird conversation to have. TL;DR: Gratitude and consideration for the other person go a long way! 💍
I agree with Myron fully, experienced this recently on a date. A girl wasted my time, and ended up not interested, now expected me to be fully chivalrous- paying for everything and all 🙄. All I owe her is descency and equal respect, nothing more.
These are fantastic takes, I was really hopeful of my investments this year, but all my plans have been disoriented, I've been studying the market crashes and I realized some investors made millions from the recent 2008 recession and I was wondering if such success rate could be achieved in this present market. Any recommendations?
I feel exceptionally lucky I started investing in my early 40s. I buy quality firms, anticipate to hold them regardless of what happens, pay up but not too much, keep track, sell only when necessary, and be ready to course correct. also ignore the forecasts and market views which are at best entertaining but completely useless. ever grateful to Trisha Jean Webb my F.A...
When he needed help, he got it, and when his dad needed entitlement programs it was there to help him, but now that he has money, he doesn’t want people to get that same help. My kids work their behinds off, and when I talked to my son about all the taxes he pays, he says, “mom, I don’t mind paying taxes, so people who need it can get help until they get on their feet, but what I do hate is when people who have the most don’t want to pitch in, or they use it when they need help but when they start making good money they don’t want to pitch in.” This Patrick guy is one of those people. He got to keep his dad alive by using those programs. He couldn’t pay his bills cause he was partying his money away, and now that he is making money, he doesn’t want others to have what he got to take advantage of. Now he calls people who need help leaches. He’s the epitome of a hypocrite.
Pat, you guys just surprised the heck out of me!😳 Whenever I see posts/comments about Social Security and Medicare NOT being Entitlement Programs, and calling all of the government handouts “Entitlements,” I feel the need to give my take on things…. I say, Social Security and Medicare ARE entitlements. And only those who paid into it, are entitled to it. They are a “Retirement Plan,” (not benefits), paid in advance by hard-working LEGAL CITIZENS. They are NOT a gift, charity, welfare, freebies, or handouts. There are millions today, who possess an “entitlement mentality,” always looking for a handout, however, they are NOT ENTITLED; thinking, and wishing, doesn’t make it so.

Take a look at the long term budget projections for Medicare. We don't have the money to pay for it. Medicare along will be adding like $30T to the national debt over the next 3 decades.
You are mistaken about the nature of SS. The first dollars put into the system went into the pockets of seniors who never paid a dime into the system. The money you put into SS is long, long gone. Any money you will get out of it today is coming from today's workers, who, if you hadn't noticed, are doing very poorly.
@@akp167 I absolutely cannot support taxing people who can't afford a home to pay for coronary bypass for 70 year olds who live in a $500,000 house who caused their disease through sloth and gluttony. It is evil. A social good argument can be made for full coverage for children and babies, some very basic coverage for working age adults so they can re-enter the workforce and they don't die of something stupid like a gallbladder attack. 1/3 of the average person's healthcare expenditure occurs in the last year of life. You will never see doctors say this is wasteful and shameful because they don't want to see their paychecks slim up by 33%.
At the end. Word power. If someone has to resort to name calling and insults. It’s a fair indicator that they haven’t prepared and have no game. Hence the need to pull out the ‘trick play’ early to cause conflict and confusion.
I think Vlad needs to remember who else I get social services. I get my military retirement and disability through the services. I broke my back for this country literally and you’re damn right I’m going to get it was mine. If that means that people take away social services and I don’t want to be on that side, plan and simple. You’re wrong if you think otherwise plan and simple.
What about the insider trading and bank bailouts that goes on. That is the real entitlement problem and the main cause of the economic troubles that is going on right now
One of the few podcasts out there that attempts to break things down more to completely and connects the dots. I like it, and they keep it to important issues, not a bunch of petty gossip subjects. From the how women have behaved and shaped men and how government (democrats) has behaved and shaped society.
@Marco Polo Well, considering that is literally our biggest expense it would make sense to focus on that. Why talk about programs that's a quarter of a 3 of our taxes?
The problem is there isn't enough money to pay for social security. SS, Medicare, and Medicaid account for close to 50% of the federal budget, or about $3 trillion/year. Taxes from SS only generates about $1 trillion/year. People who are retired now will receive way more than what they put into it. The children who retire in 50 or 60 years will probably get a small fraction of what they paid if they get anything.
The only reason some people revert to the dependency on government is the majority of their townspeople/city dwellers vote for these policies for decades, prior to the individual started working for while, at first. It is not about the economy, but the people within to vote better and/or run for themselves as a 3rd party or independent.
Imagine working two jobs to support your family. Then imagine not being able to pay for food and someone like pbd calling your welfare an entitlement program. People lose perspective after they make money. It’s sad really.
Because welfare is an entitlement. You feel entitled to my money. When did I start working to pay your bills? I guess I own your car. Man up and take care of your shit.
He comes off as someone who never struggled. And not saying he was rich as a child, but the stories ive heard of his younger life, sound like they were middle class.
We have a joke in our country when politicians talk during campaign about being "pro-poor". And we say we wholeheartedly agree they are pro-poor because they push as many people to become poorer so the latter become dependent to welfare programs and in turn become beholden to said politicians
I work my ass of, becoming an engineer, investing and looking for real estate, BUT I understand the need to help others, even if I work hard I understand how luck is also a big factor. People go through real hard shit, giving a little help can actually save people
Sure, but the hope is that the gap is filled through charity and family. So often people feel they can off load their need to love a neighbor to governments. The wonderful thing about charity and family is they are allowed a much greater amount of discretion than government entitlements.
It's not a problem to give welfare programs out when people need it. The problem is when people view it as a life-long lifestyle and never even think about working because of it.
You cannot argue that Social Security is not an entitlement program while the other social programs are. People pay their taxes people work very hard and get in bad situations and even in those bad situations continue to pay taxes. Having a program one of the very few that exist in America today, that ensures our tax dollars actually go back to a person instead of a corporation or the military industrial complex is not a bad thing.
@@JimBob-jr5up the beneficials contributed towards the program unlike other social programs eg food stamps, section 8 housing where the people just get without contribution
@@mzuribeauty4287 This is a nonsensical argument that youre making. The only difference between social security and everything else you list is SS is mentioned on your pay stub.... thats it. As a fuction it gets thrown into the same tax pile as everything else. And since you're so concerned about entitlement programs and people getting social services that they did not pay for as a one-to-one tax cost... in other words the entire point of taxes and infrastructure and the retention of a healthy economy, that lifts everyones quality of living standards up...things that have improved your life in too many ways to count.... Let's not forget to add the fact that what an individual pays in Social Security runs out in roughly 7 years. So even if you want to pretend it somehow different from the rest of the programs... because again the only functional difference at this point is is individually listed on your pay stub, it's not after that 7 years.
Social Security is an entitlement program. If it wasn’t an entitlement program no one would ever be able to receive more then they put in while working. That’s not how SS works
@Formeraxe not necessarily. The fact that they are easily manipulated to be abused in the first place a big issue. Biggest user of these systems is white women, so I can't point to the govt socially engineering poverty for other groups as the sole issue. These programs should exist for temporary assistance for a finite amount of time, then offer an ultimatum where you have to learn to self sustain or face a consequence. Unless you are legitimate disabled
You don’t do chivalry for how women receive it. You do it because that’s your own code of character. And chivalry has nothing to do with spending money or having looks. It’s about character and attitude
I half agree half don't. safety net programs are meant to catch people who fall or are really down on their luck. However, we keep expanding our programs and fail to go after the inefficiencies and issues within the systems. While I understand the Right wants to cut benifits and the philosphy behind it but they too forget that we have to fix these other issues to help lower costs. In short I think we kep dancing around the core issues.
Pat i thought this channel was about honest unbiased debate. If you believe no one on the right complains and nags i can introduce you to a few guys i know. This used to be a open date show now its only one sided. The problem with only one perspective is that you surround yourself with yes men that are either afraid to challenge you or never do.
The size of America’s budget, arguing over entitlements is like arguing over your kid taking a couple quarters out of your change jar. China built the largest high speed rail in the world with less money than the Afghanistan war alone. Every election cycle. Same arguments.
The mortgage rate killed me for refinance. I was at 2.9% area, but had couple of marks, by the time i cleared it up it now is way over what i got in 2018. Im fkn pissed about that. But the time.. well, it will never be historically that low again, and if it did .. wont want to extend the loan out anymore. Sux!
It is a funny conversation to have because if someone rich says they don't need entitlement it is not true. They drive on roads they couldn't afford to pave, they use resources they don't own and didn't create. Everyone benefits from more in life than they can personally provide for themselves so the entitlement conversation is often people who have some level of success trying to take away help from people lower on the scale and puffing their chest to say I made mine and so can and should you. If the resources they used to gain wealth were removed and they were forced to pay for everything they had and get no help they would not be where they are today. If you don't need help be thankful, don't try and take the help away from others.
What an absolutely crappy take on the debt ceiling. The debt ceiling has nothing to do with entitlements and one party doesn't want to spend less. Stop lying dude.
I got a felony as a 19 and that has severely limited my job prospects. I've sort of topped out at $24 an hour but I have 50k saved. The sad thing is I can't even do much with that as soon as I got 50k it no longer was alot of money. I'll have to wait till my parents die to ever have real money and that's sad.

The US government provided $310 million of humanitarian assistance to Kenya in 2022. In 2021, foreign capital flows to Kenya were $6 billion while remittances from Kenyans working abroad were $4 billion. Exports were $10.83 billion.

@@jolin8493 Only if you can guarantee you raise productive kids that don't cost the taxpayer anything, or that contribute more to the system than what they take out.

I disagree with the guest on the whole “women killed chivalry” thing. Real women still appreciate it. My wife’s told me that some of the little things I did, like brushing the snow off her car in the morning, or using the phone flashlight to light the way for her when walking somewhere dark, were big attraction points for her when we first started dating. Act like a Man. Most men dont. Women still appreciate it
Most of the time, I'm in agreement with PBD et al. Not on this one. The debt ceiling issues are primarily because the MIC gets it's $$$$ regardless. $1 trillion+ as an annual budget? It ain't going to the soldiers folks. Social Security and Medicare are the ONLY govt programs that have completely bi-partisan public, Main St, support.
Uh... no. Social security, medicare, medicaid, and other welfare programs are over 60% of total government spending in the national budget. Military is 15%, but they are very wasteful, regardless. However, military funding has created permanent benefits in technology, for example the internet, and rocket or space technology.
@@Lexman00 yes, some tech has come from military spending, more came from NASA back in the day, and I think the www was originally an interuniversity project, not military.
I'm already paying for ten victim families. Ain't most federal, state, city job's go to people that can't fend for themselves. Work the system or the system works you. Money is money most don't care how they get it. Half my town gets some kind of military disability. A nice boost. Two or three grand a month tax free.
Entitlement programs are for the poor what subsidies/tax breaks/loopholes are for the rich. Two sides of the same coin, both of which need to be reduced.
Programs you call entitlements like SS, VA benefits, military retirement, Medicare are all programs people earned from working and often are paid into by the individual. These things should be of the table for negotiation period. Military spending or programs people did nothing to earn are entitlements. As long as we are giving away money to countries like Ukraine snd Israel dont talk to me about budgets and spending.
The difference is people welfare are just draining the resources. Corporate welfare oils the economic machine. I think both are useless and destructive.

There is a difference between welfare and entitlement like social security which people paid for.
Not really because people who have been working for 15-20 years and then all the sudden lose their jobs for a reason have been paying into their unemployment and welfare benefits through taxes too.
Thank you! Somehow, people just don’t understand the difference. Every time I see these posts going around social media, I have to give my take on it. I was left speechless by this conversation!! 😳
@@cynthiaroses4272 welfare or social programs do not really make a difference as they are unconstitutional. I don't see the word insurance, healthcare and education written under the enumerated powers in the constitutional amendments. Also, the moment those programs were created, the politicians would use it to fund or subsidize other things, likely to win others through votes. FDR and LBJ have already succeeded in controlling the masses through these ponzi schemes.
Its wild how rabid boomers are about Social Security. Im a gen xer and I just figure Im never seeing anything from social security but boomers act like that is the end of the world. Its really fascinating
100 percent. Don't mess with SS for those that worked and paid into it for decades.
To what Myron was saying about modern women...I met this woman who was into the same music as I was and our first two dates were to rock concerts. I told her from the start that I was attracted to her and wanted to take her on a proper date. Turns out she was only going out with me for free concerts even though I made my intentions known. She gave me the "you're such a great friend" line. Now there are a lot of women out there who won't accept a coffee date because they think he's being cheap. They want and expect a 5 star restaurant on the first date. Men, take her on a coffee date and make her earn the expensive restaurants. Chances are a coffee date is all the investment in her you'll want to make.
Neither side should want an expensive first date because both should demand a real connection before investment like that. A smart woman should be suspicious of a man who is willing to spend a lot of money on a first date because it shows he doesn’t have any discernment or standards. He is either insecure and/or has a transactional view of relationships. And the same goes for the suspicion a man should have for a woman who wants an expensive first date. She is engaging in a level of transactionalism that shows she doesn’t respect herself or have any standards besides money
Totally agree. Coffee, smoothie, ice cream or a walk in the park is all they get from me.
It’s very healthy to begin any interaction with the opposite sex assuming the worst of the individual based on a prior bad experience or exposure to misandrist/misogynist TikToks.
This is the way to healthy relationships and thus, a healthy society.

These are good programs for those who fall in hard times or otherwise need assistance for a period of time until they can get back on their feet. This helps tons stay out of poverty. The issues is how people have become entitled to abuse these programs and live off of them for years and years or as long as possible which defeats the good & true purpose of them and let’s all those abusers have basic lives paid for them by the state without having to do any work. If they try to work or contribute to society, they’ll lose those benefits so they’re choosing to live a free basic life instead of trying to work and move themselves up to live better lives over time. This has also become a generational teaching in these families where the kids grow up on these programs and see how they work and believe it’s just how things are and don’t realize it’s an abuse of a system. If hard caps are placed on these programs with exceptions only for those who are seriously or permanently disabled and things of that severity and everyone else gets a few months or so to get back on their feet and start working again. But no, the Dems primarily have allowed these loopholes for abuse exist because they’ve bought them countless votes over the decades. They’ll never support time limit changes while they’re benefiting in elections from allowing the abuse. That’s how to solve it though.
Well said!
Omgggg Myron nailed it at min 7:15 mark…I am woman and can totally agree that modern woman are entitled to the core. This is exactly what my bf and I talk about how bit**y the woman have become. It’s hard to even maintain friends now because most women think they are a gift to this planet, when they are nothing just pretty looking creatures
It’s men’s fault and social media. They get gassed up all day and never called on their bs. Why wouldn’t they be entitled?
@@NPFfumbiIts no ones "fault" except the woman with the shit behavior.
Any "government benefit", regardless what it is for or titled, is designed to create dependence on the government which equates to control over the recipient.
When the government "saves" your money for your retirement, they actually do not save anything but instead tax people to pay for your retirement, including you (you do know your pension is taxed, right?) - the money "put aside" for your retirement is never put aside, but is spent, knowing this can be taken, yes, taken, from taxpayers to cover the money owed to the retiree - and if the government can not pay the retiree, then too bad, you're on your own.
If you trust politicians then expect to be used, because that is the only thing politicians can and will do...
Exactly how much do you think ppl get in benefits a month?
Just one person, who qualifies? And lets be clear here, about half of states wont grant individuals any benefits at all, and many wont give anything to men.... but you qualified for food stamps and cash addistance, how much do you think those are?
Not true, some are to help people get off their feet, at least that was the intention!
To some degree I agree with you about the dependance part. Even when you retire early, you can't draw those benefits you earned out right away w/o a penalty even though they've been using your money for YEARS...So even then you remain dependent on the govt regulation of benefits. ..and it's not even an entitlement program, it's just the law of the land..
So let the poor die of hunger? Why do you have the right to use loopholes in the corrupt system to get rich ?
@@manwomen7801 Two very separate questions, so two very separate answers:
1) So let the poor die of hunger? - what kind of society lets their poor die of hunger? - note; society, not government - it is society's responsibility to look after the vulnerable in that society, not the government's - and look at where the poor are "dying of hunger", and it is invariably Democrat run cities - not towns or rural areas, just Democrat cities - so there is the answer to the question "what kind of society lets their poor die of hunger?"
2) Why do you have the right to use loopholes in the corrupt system to get rich? - who is this "you"? - those who corrupt systems (create loopholes) to take advantage of people to get rich are what we used to call "scumbags", and since it is predominantly politicians who corrupt government systems to get rich... you finish the sentence....

As a recent fiancée, I thought I'd add a note that not all women take kind men for granted. My date stood out because he held (and still holds) the car door for me; I feel a wave of gratitude every time because I recognize that he's pampering me by doing that.
When we go out to eat, yes, I generally expect him to pay, but we communicate to make sure we're on the same page and not putting him in a bind by doing so. For example, we made reservations at a nice place to try last week with my mother as it's a potential caterer for our wedding; the prices were a lot higher than our typical place, we had an extra person, and we anticipated ordering more items to test a variety of dishes. When I saw that, I immediately looked up at him and asked if I could give him cash beforehand so that he would still pay at the restaurant (we both enjoy that) but that it wouldn't come out of his pocket. We stategized beforehand. That's the type of thing that bring us together: we get ahead of potential problems even if it seems like a weird conversation to have.
TL;DR:
Gratitude and consideration for the other person go a long way! 💍
You are a keeper 👍
I’m 35. Absolutely not counting on SS to be there for me. I’m making my own retirement.
I agree with Myron fully, experienced this recently on a date. A girl wasted my time, and ended up not interested, now expected me to be fully chivalrous- paying for everything and all 🙄. All I owe her is descency and equal respect, nothing more.
These are fantastic takes, I was really hopeful of my investments this year, but all my plans have been disoriented, I've been studying the market crashes and I realized some investors made millions from the recent 2008 recession and I was wondering if such success rate could be achieved in this present market. Any recommendations?
Cryptocurrency crashed the last couple years, so it should be starting a new run to a new high.
I feel exceptionally lucky I started investing in my early 40s.

@@RandyPelletier Did a quick web search, she has a pretty decent bio, I wrote her and I'm waiting on her reply.
When he needed help, he got it, and when his dad needed entitlement programs it was there to help him, but now that he has money, he doesn’t want people to get that same help. My kids work their behinds off, and when I talked to my son about all the taxes he pays, he says, “mom, I don’t mind paying taxes, so people who need it can get help until they get on their feet, but what I do hate is when people who have the most don’t want to pitch in, or they use it when they need help but when they start making good money they don’t want to pitch in.” This Patrick guy is one of those people. He got to keep his dad alive by using those programs. He couldn’t pay his bills cause he was partying his money away, and now that he is making money, he doesn’t want others to have what he got to take advantage of. Now he calls people who need help leaches. He’s the epitome of a hypocrite.
Pat, you guys just surprised the heck out of me!😳 Whenever I see posts/comments about Social Security and Medicare NOT being Entitlement Programs, and calling all of the government handouts “Entitlements,” I feel the need to give my take on things…. I say, Social Security and Medicare ARE entitlements. And only those who paid into it, are entitled to it. They are a “Retirement Plan,” (not benefits), paid in advance by hard-working LEGAL CITIZENS. They are NOT a gift, charity, welfare, freebies, or handouts. There are millions today, who possess an “entitlement mentality,” always looking for a handout, however, they are NOT ENTITLED; thinking, and wishing, doesn’t make it so. And the communists in our government, that are all too happy to encourage them; feeling free to redistribute hard earned taxpayer money, need to be held accountable, for jeopardizing the future of those of us who have faithfully accepted, and counted on the plan that was laid out for us.
Take a look at the long term budget projections for Medicare. We don't have the money to pay for it. Medicare along will be adding like $30T to the national debt over the next 3 decades.
You are mistaken about the nature of SS. The first dollars put into the system went into the pockets of seniors who never paid a dime into the system. The money you put into SS is long, long gone. Any money you will get out of it today is coming from today's workers, who, if you hadn't noticed, are doing very poorly.
@@akp167 I absolutely cannot support taxing people who can't afford a home to pay for coronary bypass for 70 year olds who live in a $500,000 house who caused their disease through sloth and gluttony.

A social good argument can be made for full coverage for children and babies, some very basic coverage for working age adults so they can re-enter the workforce and they don't die of something stupid like a gallbladder attack. 1/3 of the average person's healthcare expenditure occurs in the last year of life. You will never see doctors say this is wasteful and shameful because they don't want to see their paychecks slim up by 33%.

Social security is not a a entitlement we payed into it
Pretty sure he's referring to government benefits that can be more easily exploited. I don't think he's including social security.
@Marco Polo Well, considering that is literally our biggest expense it would make sense to focus on that. Why talk about programs that's a quarter of a 3 of our taxes?
You're right. What it really is is a pyramid scheme, and as we know, all pyramid schemes collapse
The problem is there isn't enough money to pay for social security. SS, Medicare, and Medicaid account for close to 50% of the federal budget, or about $3 trillion/year. Taxes from SS only generates about $1 trillion/year. People who are retired now will receive way more than what they put into it. The children who retire in 50 or 60 years will probably get a small fraction of what they paid if they get anything.
@@anon9364 you can’t cut social security when there are people that need it to survive.
The only reason some people revert to the dependency on government is the majority of their townspeople/city dwellers vote for these policies for decades, prior to the individual started working for while, at first. It is not about the economy, but the people within to vote better and/or run for themselves as a 3rd party or independent.

I've had 2 people at my job try to commit suicide for government assistance and I just can't believe it. It's sickening.
I work my ass of, becoming an engineer, investing and looking for real estate, BUT I understand the need to help others, even if I work hard I understand how luck is also a big factor. People go through real hard shit, giving a little help can actually save people
Sure, but the hope is that the gap is filled through charity and family. So often people feel they can off load their need to love a neighbor to governments.
The wonderful thing about charity and family is they are allowed a much greater amount of discretion than government entitlements.
It's not a problem to give welfare programs out when people need it. The problem is when people view it as a life-long lifestyle and never even think about working because of it.
That's great. Get your wallet out and help.
Really good 5 points.

You cannot argue that Social Security is not an entitlement program while the other social programs are. People pay their taxes people work very hard and get in bad situations and even in those bad situations continue to pay taxes. Having a program one of the very few that exist in America today, that ensures our tax dollars actually go back to a person instead of a corporation or the military industrial complex is not a bad thing.

@@mzuribeauty4287 This is a nonsensical argument that youre making.
The only difference between social security and everything else you list is SS is mentioned on your pay stub.... thats it.
As a fuction it gets thrown into the same tax pile as everything else.
And since you're so concerned about entitlement programs and people getting social services that they did not pay for as a one-to-one tax cost... in other words the entire point of taxes and infrastructure and the retention of a healthy economy, that lifts everyones quality of living standards up...things that have improved your life in too many ways to count.... Let's not forget to add the fact that what an individual pays in Social Security runs out in roughly 7 years.
So even if you want to pretend it somehow different from the rest of the programs... because again the only functional difference at this point is is individually listed on your pay stub, it's not after that 7 years.
Social Security is an entitlement program. If it wasn’t an entitlement program no one would ever be able to receive more then they put in while working. That’s not how SS works

@@tooneov Sure, but if less people were on these programs, the latter would not be an issue.
@Formeraxe not necessarily. The fact that they are easily manipulated to be abused in the first place a big issue. Biggest user of these systems is white women, so I can't point to the govt socially engineering poverty for other groups as the sole issue. These programs should exist for temporary assistance for a finite amount of time, then offer an ultimatum where you have to learn to self sustain or face a consequence.

I half agree half don't. safety net programs are meant to catch people who fall or are really down on their luck. However, we keep expanding our programs and fail to go after the inefficiencies and issues within the systems.

In short I think we kep dancing around the core issues.

It is a funny conversation to have because if someone rich says they don't need entitlement it is not true. They drive on roads they couldn't afford to pave, they use resources they don't own and didn't create. Everyone benefits from more in life than they can personally provide for themselves so the entitlement conversation is often people who have some level of success trying to take away help from people lower on the scale and puffing their chest to say I made mine and so can and should you. If the resources they used to gain wealth were removed and they were forced to pay for everything they had and get no help they would not be where they are today. If you don't need help be thankful, don't try and take the help away from others.
Nothing is free, everything cost you something..you pay it with money or pshycologically..there is nothing more costly than free things..

My wife’s told me that some of the little things I did, like brushing the snow off her car in the morning, or using the phone flashlight to light the way for her when walking somewhere dark, were big attraction points for her when we first started dating. Act like a Man. Most men dont. Women still appreciate it
Lol, try to tell that to a 21 year old Hot blonde, she will think you're a Peasant lol
Most of the time, I'm in agreement with PBD et al. Not on this one. The debt ceiling issues are primarily because the MIC gets it's $$$$ regardless. $1 trillion+ as an annual budget? It ain't going to the soldiers folks. Social Security and Medicare are the ONLY govt programs that have completely bi-partisan public, Main St, support.
Exactly
Sending trillions of dollars over seas, yearly
31 trillion dollar in debt is not there because of ordinary Americans
EXACTLY
Most Republicans want to cut SS & Medicare
Uh... no. Social security, medicare, medicaid, and other welfare programs are over 60% of total government spending in the national budget. Military is 15%, but they are very wasteful, regardless. However, military funding has created permanent benefits in technology, for example the internet, and rocket or space technology.
@@Lexman00 yes, some tech has come from military spending, more came from NASA back in the day, and I think the www was originally an interuniversity project, not military.
The mention of naggers reminded me of that one South Park episode lol
I'm already paying for ten victim families. Ain't most federal, state, city job's go to people that can't fend for themselves. Work the system or the system works you. Money is money most don't care how they get it. Half my town gets some kind of military disability. A nice boost. Two or three grand a month tax free.
The night life example did not add to the conversation
Entitlement programs need to be completely redone.
Meanwhile, banks and corporations are the most entitled🤷🏾♂️
Does the guy ever talk about the war?
I do not need entitlements but I am glad entitlement programs exist - sometimes people need help.
Entitlement programs are for the poor what subsidies/tax breaks/loopholes are for the rich. Two sides of the same coin, both of which need to be reduced.
Programs you call entitlements like SS, VA benefits, military retirement, Medicare are all programs people earned from working and often are paid into by the individual. These things should be of the table for negotiation period. Military spending or programs people did nothing to earn are entitlements. As long as we are giving away money to countries like Ukraine snd Israel dont talk to me about budgets and spending.
Did anybody else go to the South Park episode with Randi when he was on the game show in the question was people who annoy you? 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Fresh and fit support grapists.
Does valuetainement support this kind of message?
He knows that these are separate financial issues. HE IS LYING , he knows better.
I just wrote the same thing. He's pandering to his gullible right wing viewers. This guy has zero integrity.
How about free ppp loans to businesses?
if the government would pay back the Social Security funds they owe us we would not be
having this conversation
Why don't you talk about corporate welfare ?
The difference is people welfare are just draining the resources. Corporate welfare oils the economic machine. I think both are useless and destructive.
