Social Security is an "entitlement program" because it is based on the idea that all citizens are entitled to a livable income and the support of society in their old age.  

The first "social security" sort of program implemented in Western society was created in Germany in the 1800s, under Chancellor Otto von Bismarck.  In seeking to correct some of the problems that led to the Depression in the United States, President Franklin Roosevelt implemented "New Deal" programs, including the Social Security Act, signed into law in 1935.  

By definition, an "entitlement program" is a government program that provides benefits to individuals to which they have a legal right (thus are "entitled") because of a law that authorizes the program and sets qualifications for recipients.
