They've vowed since FDR's presidency to kill Social Security and return the country back to the plutocratic ownership-rule of the corporatists and the aristocracy. They believe that unless a person is from that group, they are not entitled to anything except wage slavery. And FWIW, they'd just as soon make any person who has to work for a paycheck a flat out slave period. They and their ilk are the ruling class and everyone else is a peasant. Too bad for you if you're not one of them.
