AARP was on board with obama nuff sed, I throw thier sh## in the garbage when I get it
I have commend the AARP for this. Any organization that can publicly oppose more than 90% of its members and still be in business has obviously raised their con game to an art form.
I must get a round of AARP promo stuff every 2 weeks. As bad as credit card applications.
save for later read
I’ll be 65 in the not to distant future. Anyone familiar with AMAC?
I doubt anything said by the opponents of the fiduciary rule. Far too many of the "advisers" against it were scummy insurace salesmen who claimed their high cost, low return, nearly impossible to move insurance contracts were the best thing for your retirement. I don't know the details about the Obama fiduciary rule, but I would never accept advice from a financial adviser who was not legally and contractually bound to act in my best interests and not his own.
Mike Gallagher (a great talk radio host) has a commercial for AMAC, the Association of Mature American Citizens; he says it’s a conservative alternative to the leftist AARP. It was apparently formed after a large percentage of seniors urged the AARP to reject Obamacare, but the organization supported it anyway.
I have to check it out. It sounds interesting; I don’t know if it’s a non-profit group or what.
It has been enormously successful at both.
They are one of the most successful cons ever pulled off.
I was recently retired due to COVID-19. I consider my new lack of association with anything a feature of retirement, not something I need to join an association to remedy.
I was social distancing long before it was cool.
I have United Healthcare ONLY because it is what my long time doctors accept. It is THE INSURANCE that allowed me to keep my doctors after I retired. I DO NOT LIKE AARP. But I do like being able to continue with doctors that I know and appreciate.

It should be an SEC rule, not the labor department which Obama wanted.
Turned my back on them so long ago, I don’t even remember how to spell AARP.
AARP is not accountable to seniors the way teacher’s unions are not accountable to the students.
Al Shanker, president of the American Federation of Teachers, was quoted as saying: ‘When school children start paying union dues, that’s when I’ll start representing school children.’
AARP Delenda Est.
The AARP can go to hell. They’re nothing more than scam artists and a lobbying arm for the geezer wing of the DNC, and I refuse to hitch my wagon to them.
