Romney: 'Entitlement' society means 'we're all poor' - POLITICO.com: In a pre-debate rally at his campaign headquarters in a former Blockbuster video store in Des Moines, Mitt Romney highlight his family - and bashed people who suggested an "entitlement-based" society.
Some people believe that "instead of a merit-based society we should be an entitlement based society," Romney told the crowd of about 100 people on hand, adding that people in that mindset want everyone to essentially receive the same things, and said if that happens, "We'll have the certainty that we're all pretty close to equal. But we'll also have the certainty that we're all poor. Because what drives an economy is people pursuing their dreams."
Romney also made a direct plea for caucus-goers' support, adding, "You're gonna see us time and again here in Iowa. We want you guys to get out and get your friends to caucus to do whatever has to get done on jan. 3 to get out there and make a difference."
