Now, let's look at "Entitlement"

Recently, I've been hearing a lot of buzz about entitlements. And by recently, I mean over the last few years.

I know the Red voters are referring to things like Welfare, and Unemployment payments, which is actually paid into by workers, and food stamps, and so on, but I would like to address the entitlements that they ignore.

Corporate tax breaks. These tax breaks are given to companies in order to entice them to build facilities in certain places, or not move away, or some other thing the government would like them to do, or not do.

The tax breaks are not one shot deals, either. They are ongoing, and in some cases, a part of the tax laws.

Some of these breaks have been in place for so long, they out date the oldest living resident of that particular area. So long, that the companies in question don't see them as incentives anymore, but as rights.
