Believing you are automatically owed something by society thanks to lies from Democrats, Socialists and Liberals. Usually comes in the form of handouts: universal healthcare, the redistribution of wealth, reparations for blacks, reverse discrimination against whites to benefit blacks, politicans voting themselves a payraise in the middle of the night, athletes getting paid $200 million for their "talent", affirmative action, welfare, social security, etc.
Entitlement has taght Generation-X and Generation-Y that they can have a lavish lifestyle of materialism that it took their parents YEARS to achieve. Young people (under 30) now have record debt as a result, and are buying homes they can’t afford, cars they can’t pay for and credit cards they can’t pay off. Entitlement has led them to having to live with mommy and daddy ‘til things improve financially.

A bitter woman who thinks all men are scum without reason, and hates a man just because he is of the male gender. It’s often the result of an important male figure in her life hurting her emotionally.

A transportation company that is supposed to get you from one coast to the other in a a few hours but is permitted by the FAA and Dept. of Transportation to abuse its customers by trapping them for hours at a time on the ground without access to water, snacks, or a bathroom; and losing your expensive baggage--only to return it to you weeks later and in bad condition; not to mention having seats that are dangerously narrow and if a person is fat, they have to buy an extra seat; and the aircraft's operator is drunk.
The airline lives up to its reputation--it doesn't matter wheather you are going to heaven or hell, you have to go through Chicago.

A big, cold, barren state of the United States and the 49th state admitted to the Union, lying on the far NW corner of North America. It has a whole plethora of mountains, river valleys and forests. With some 600,000 or so residents, it has the lowest population density of any state. Some 65% of the state is government-owned land. Juneau is the capital and Anchorage is the largest city.
The Ididarod dogsled race is in Alaska and is a major event.
No, Alaska is not a state where the only inhabitants are Eskimos. The Eskimos live mostly in villages in the far north and hunt and fish for food. Most of Alaska is white and primarily vote Republican.
Most residents in Alaska work in mining/extracting, government and tourism. Alaska was originally called Seward's Folly until oil and gold were found in the late 19th Century. Alaska has gobbles amounts of oil reserves and has the Alaskan Pipeline going from Fairbanks to Valdez. The state's huge oil reserves and natural resources actually make it one of America's richest state's per-capita.

Competition between socioeconomic classes: rich, middle-class and poor. It occurs most often in capitalist countries where politicians use it to get votes, by enacting legislation that supposedly puts one class at an advantage over the other. For example, liberals and Democrats in the United States often use the words TAX CUTS FOR THE RICH as an excuse to not support a tax cut of any kind to anyone, while Republicans complain that high taxes are burdensome for the rich and owners of small business (middle-class). In the Presidential election of 2008, Democrat candidate Barack Obama accused his opponent, Arizona Senator John McCain, of owning too many homes while McCain charged Obama of being out of touch with middle-class, middle American ideals. Politicians also utilize class war in an effort to promote universal healthcare, claiming it will help the poor and put everyone at an even playing field, but conservatives claim it will create burdensome taxes on the rich. Class warfare is also seen in corporate America as lower paying employees or members of unions sometimes protest what they perceive as unfair business practices of rewarding corporate executives with big bonuses, excessive raises and inflated salaries, while the lower paying middle-class workers are forced to accept pay cuts and job losses and concessions. The redistribution of wealth is another example where the rich are forced to surrender more of their earnings in higher taxes and give them to the poor. Another example is found in welfare, that gives money to the poor.

The absolute worst airline in the U.S. to fly, known for bad customer service and routinely fininsh in the bottom of US carriers for quality. They rank as the single-worst airline for on-time departures, baggage, customer service issues and friendliness of employees.
The current US Airways is called "The New US Airways" after it was purchased by classier America West Airlines. The merger moved its corporate headquarters from northern Virginia to Tempe, AZ. US airways has the worst record for on-time departures because its hubs cities are known for constant delays: Phoenix, Las Vegas, Charlotte, Philadelphia, Washington National, Boston and New York-La Guardia.

The worst financial crisis in the United States since the Great Depression and the current period we are in. It occurred during the first decade of the 21st century (core years lasted from 2007-2010) and was marked by rampant job losses, high unemployment, collapse of the real estate market, Wall Street losses, and the closing of numerous banks. The national unemployment rate was as high as 10% in 2010.
It was triggered by foreclosures and a collapse of the real estate market in Florida in 2007. Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, two large government subsidized mortgages lenders, later fell under heavy scrutiny by many members of Congress. It also created a national credit crunch that resulted in new government regulations that tightened lending standards and changed the rules for nearly every bank. All of a sudden, even people with nearly spotless credit found it hard to get a loan on anything. Wall Street stocks fell by nearly 50% in 2009.
The GR also changed the political clout in Washington when Republicans became the majority party in the House of Representatives, after the 2010 midterm elections sent many Democrats home. Things havent improved very much as the Great Recession is still ongoing and many Americans are still out of work. It will take many years for the housing market to recover, and probably longer for the jobs return to pre-recession levels.
