If you want to be a member of an organization that is actively supporting an unsustainable health care program go ahead. Once it passes into law, millions more people are added to the program, the federal revenue base diminshes because of a shrinking tax base, and you experience rationing - then don't complain. The time to question AARP's leaders is now; later will be too late... vacations will be the least of your worries. My point was that AARP members need to see what the members are REALLY going to gain and not just the upper echelon. This is an attempt to keep our seniors voting for the dems agenda - no matter the cost to the country - period. Dear TerryG NebraskaPatriot,

Never true; never will be!! Even the intelligent members of the DemLibFasc party can't agree with the DNC. Don't tar all of us with that brush. We're older, but we can still think rationally!!!; and get good deals on vacations!!!

I thought AARP were one of the honest ones. I thought they were patriotic. I thought they had the strength to stand on their own! I thought wrong. Seems the government bribe is worth more then the people they serve. Disclaimers to identify those who choose government over the people. I don't want to give business to business that isn't standing on their own! Or that cave into government thievery of the people. It's all clear. THIS IS A GOVERNMENT TAKE-OVER!!! Totally agree.

I will not support an organization who cannot or will not accept the proposed government health care takeover for what it really is. Like the "Non-Stimulus" Bill already passed, this "reform" is just another unsustainable increase of debt, which we can never pay off. The unwillingness to enforce immigration laws dovetails nicely will future democrat voters. The public option will explode with millions of additional enrollees. If the AARP is too ignorant to see the impact on the very people they are supposed to represent that is one thing. I believe this is really all about the AARP elite. The question is, are the rank and file AARP members sheep? I will never join the AARP.
