I don't know why conservatives call "Medicare/Medicaid" an "entitlement" when they don't call the First Amendment an "entitlement". Or the Second Amendment.
They are equally entitlements.
You could also call them both "rights".
<sarcasm>
I know... let's make the minimum wage $0, tax anybody making < $80K at 40%, no minimum amounts, and tax anybody making >$80k but < $500k at 20%, and anybody over that at 5%, as that will increase revenue. And cut corporate taxes to 3%, and make minimum CEO wages be 10% company profits. Furthermore, we can cut all social security, medicare and medicade, and redirect all that spending to military programs, like the SDI. This will make the poor want to not be poor, so they will slowly become rich. And the rich will have so much fluffing money they'll employ everybody with HUGE benefits, and increase wages, because *that's what rich people do best*, give away their money. We could also add an additional FINE for people making <$5k per year, of oh, i dunno, say $1k, for being poor. That'll teach em.
