Earning a benefit is different -- and you know that.
I know there's not a purer form of socialism that this country provides other than the VA. Hospitals owned by the government, doctors paid for by the government and you, conix, believe you EARNED it. You had a damn job. One that you enlisted to do....and you think you deserve free health care for the rest of your pitiful life? For all we know you could have just served the minimum amount of time, 36 months and have been milking the system for decades.
Just being born is not "earning" a benefit.
Did you go to public schools, ever call the police, had to go to court, use the fire department, drive on roads, go to a post office? You see, you're already a socialist you freaking hypocrite.
