How to use entitlement in a sentence?

  1. Michael Becker:

    Third-party doctors verified her injury and entitlement to benefits, ms. Kilcher was at all times candid with her doctors and treatment providers... and she never intentionally accepted benefits that she did not believe she was entitled to.

    I think that Washington should look to Georgia for examples of conservative leadership, in Georgia, we’ve outlawed and defunded sanctuary cities, we balance our budget every single year and we’ve combatted entitlement abuse head-on with work requirements all while becoming the No. 1 state for business.

  3. Diane Goodman:

    The bigger issues aren’t unique to the NFL, but I think they are stark in the NFL: Who’s in positions of power? And who’s making decisions? When that is only one group, particularly people who are privileged, who are from the dominant group, then those are going to likely be skewed decisions and skewed world views, it’s easy to point to Gruden and go, ‘Oh, isn’t he terrible?’ and ‘Look at the terrible things he did.’ But that doesn’t look at that larger culture, where people were participating with him. People were allowing these emails to exist. It really is about the whole culture and that sense, that I’m sure people have cultivated, to feel like, ‘I can say these things and they will be, at best, appreciated and reciprocated or, at worst, people may not appreciate them but nothing’s going to happen.’ And that is about privilege and entitlement.

  4. Alex Azar:

  5. Jay Clark on Wednesday:

    It’s not about Olivia or NIL or social media, it’s just I guess sort of the sense of entitlement that some people feel they can behave a certain way and that what we saw go on out there was a behavior that I didn’t think was appropriate, that’s not normal autograph seeking behavior, you know, engagement with an athlete with fans and that kind of stuff. There was a, there was a mob sense to that scene that that was very disconcerting to me and that’s what I hope is not going to become the norm.
