Seniors vote, one way or the other. $12.50 a year is an easy return with bonus if you use the discounts. So saying that that money is a donation to socialistic lobbyism is par for the course, but also lacking in accountability.

But, I can only hope my one legal vote counters the socialism that my $12.50 bought.

Unfortunately, your $12.50 per year is being used to turn America into the Soviet Union, and your name is on the list of those who support that idea, whether you do or not.

It is moral treason to financially support those who would destroy you.

It really doesn't. You're part of the claim of representing however many millions of Seniors.

I won't join:

1. After years of forced membership in teachers unions I almost never agreed with that never asked my opinion, it's great to be able to say "no" to these commies who never ask their members opinion.

2. I was really, really irritated when I hit 50 and my mail box constantly had junk from them that advertised on the envelope that I was old enough to join AARP.

You're supporting their cause whether you want to or not. Your money does support their lobbyists, etc.

This is just the same as a union. They take your money, and then they spend it on political activism - without your permission.

I will never send money to people who don't support my views.
