An Entitlement Equals an Obligation

Every entitlement given to any individual by the government is matched by a corresponding obligation which the government must impose on another individual to provide the entitlement.  This holds not only for entitlements to individuals, but also to support which the government gives to companies, schools, and groups of any kind.  For example the government’s investment of over 500 million dollars in the solar panel company Solyndra, required the government to collect $1,000. from over 500,000 households.  Think about that every time you hear about another government program, no matter how laudable you think the intentions.
