Friend Traveler;
I like what you are saying about entitlements, but I think that you are confusing risk taking with entitlements.
We all take risks with employment and find that we must choose, as have I, between safety/security and high income. I didn't know that I was taking a large risk by seeking a career in the building industry, but I was. I now work in the convenience store industry, and have not done a lot of risk taking, but have often thought about buying my own store. Risk = reward.
I think that someone who believes that any company is there to provide jobs rather than to make a profit, has an entitlement mentality.
Thank you for being a risk taker and proving it can be done.

"It is not enough to know that God lives, that Jesus Christ is our
Savior, and that the gospel is true. We must take the high road by acting
upon that knowledge." Elder Dallon H. Oaks
"The Lord works from the inside out. The world works from the outside in. The world would take people out of the slums. Christ takes the slums out of people, and then they take themselves out of the slums. The world would mold men by changing their environment. Christ changes men, who then change their environment. The world would shape human behavior, but Christ can change human nature."
--Ezra Taft Benson, "Born of God", Ensign, July 1989, 2
