If you think you are entitled to any amount larger than zero, you are showing entitlement.

It's not an entitlement if you're paying into the tax base.

I'm somehow entitled to others receiving corporate bailouts, entitled to massive military waste spending, and entitled to seeing the "victims" of Havana Syndrome receiving free healthcare for life.

Yet I am not entitled to this money going towards research for the greater good of humanity?
