[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I love that OP is defining entitlement as wanting to be able to afford housing on your salary.

I think it's entitled for people who already own houses to think they can dictate what happens to all the land around them, in order to ensure they can one day sell their home for 3-4x what they paid for it.

But I guess we just get to define words however we want now.[/quote]

Nice try. Let’s help you out here. Entitlement happens when your ABC salary affords you ABC housing — which definitely exists already in your metro area — but YOU want XYZ type housing in the same general zip codes because it’s nicer than the ABC housing you are able to afford with your salary and life choices.

Rather than accept your readily available ABC housing, you demand that others (not you) change so you can obtain your nicer XYZ housing.

That is entitled

Entitled is believing you have a say over private property you don't own.[/quote]

Both of you are entitled by that definition. The only difference is what you want to do with that private property...
