If we're going to cut entitlements, lets start with those who didn't put their lives on the line to defend the country. All those worthless individuals who are crying because Oprah won't be broadcasting anymore, so their days on welfare will be a little less entertaining.

Military benefits would be the last thing to cut. Those guys earned it, and frankly, it isn't enough.

Those who would rather do nothing all day don't deserve a penny.

Never said they didnt deserve benefits but 40 years old? The problem is the cuts have to be DEEP and affect everybody.. Problem is everyone wants to defend their turf so NOTHING is done. Everyone wants something done that doesn't affect them so we are at a stalemate.
