That is the biggest problem with entitlements. Once you have them, it is near impossible to get rid of them. The left is very good at turning entitlements into "rights".

emphasis added.

I think, to be intellectually honest, that should, more broadly, read "politicians". All sides have their bases and constituents that they dare not threaten, jeopardize or otherwise weaken the entitlements thereof.
