69. I'm not. I'm telling you what you're not entitled to.
Let me explain it to you, it is an entitlement, which I have paid into all my life, now I am entitled.

You've paid into a magical health care/drug fund your whole life, and now you're entitled to it? That's certainly an interesting take on it. Where is this repository of money, pray tell.

You never walked in my shoes in my era to even pass a judgement like that. I was never paid what I was worth or what my education warranted because I was a woman.


I'm not passing judgement. You think you're owed something that isn't a right. I don't think you're owed anything in particular.

When I started working women made 63 cents on the dollar that a man made. I had to train fresh guy out of college after fresh guy out of college at one job, which job I was never offered, because I was a woman "and would probably leave to get married and pregnant anyway" so don't tell me what I am entitled to.


So, therefore, the gov't owes you for life? Suffice it to say we disagree. Completely.
