AARP has close ties to government
I have been wondering for a while why the AARP supported and advocated for the Obamacare bill that was jammed through Congress. Richard Foster, Medicare's chief actuary, has stated that in this bill Medicare payment rates will be cut by 30 percent over the next three years. Total cuts will be $1.05 trillion over the next 10 years despite the growing number of seniors who will depend on it.
Now I have my answer. All one has to do is Google "how the federal government subsidizes AARP" and you can see how they are just another left-wing advocacy group - this one using seniors as an excuse to exist. Hard to believe, but check it out and see what you think.
