I found this linked to Townhall today. It sounds like a new organization for retired people. May be promising

[freekitty]

I really liked what I read.

I found another such a couple years ago. USA acronym, but I don't remember what they're called and don't seem to have the URL bookmarked.

Thanks. Just had my 50th recently and got the crap from AARP which I threw away. Will look into this.

Found it. Things seem to have changed a bit

I agree, I do to especially this (off their site)

"NO SOCIAL SECURITY FOR ILLEGAL ALIENS

NASCON supports congressional rejection of the 2004 “totalization” agreement the Bush administration signed with Mexico, which if implemented would allow millions of Mexican immigrants illegally working in the U.S. to apply and receive Social Security benefits. The agreement also provides for the opening of a U.S. Social Security office in Mexico City unless Congress blocks it.



SOCIAL SECURITY AND HEALTH SAVINGS ACCOUNTS

NASCON believes everyone who participates in the Social Security program should use legal and accurate identification.. Social Security taxes must not be hiked— instead, Big Government programs must be cut or eliminated. Congress should replace the current tax code with a system that is simpler and provides more freedom to our citizens -- while encouraging savings and investment. NASCON believes Health Savings Accounts allow people to own and control their own health care. As the 2004 Republican platform noted, “they are an important step toward creating a system of consumer-driven health care that puts patients and doctors at the center of decision-making – not government bureaucrats.” The Congress must continue to ensure that these accounts are available to all Americans."

They have some excellent ideas for legislation.

Been with USA for 5 or more years. Use the card to get most the same benefits as the commy org AARP. Sorry 'bout the commy statment but the AARP would bankrupt the fed gummint at the drop of a hat. They are scum.

[freekitty]

I wondered who he was.

[freekitty]

Thanks Sionnsar.

Anything is better than AARP.

[freekitty]

I believe they are a commy organization too.

And I am so glad to see other organizations out there. Maybe one will stick.

[sionnsar]

Allen In So Cal seems to think USA is fine. I haven't joined anything yet, but I now have now established a few years' tradition of tossing AARP come-ons in the trash.

[Randy Larsen]

Thanks. Just had my 50th recently and got the crap from AARP which I threw away.

I'm 48, My wife just turned 50...is this what we have coming?

[Allen In Texas Hill Country]

Don't throw their (AARP) flyers and comeons in the trash. I send them back with no stamp and a smart-azz remark inside. Make 'em pay the postage. Only wish I couild send a billion back in postage.
