Paul Ryan booed at AARP | Election 2012
Washington, D.C. is shocked to find that AARP may have had a financial incentive to push Obamacare..
But you knew that, because I posted about it on September 30, 2009, AARP Shills for Kennedy...
And again on December 2, 2009, AARP Rides To Obamacare’s Rescue, Again...
And one last lament on November 27, 2010, When Will AARP, Consumers Union and AMA Be Held To Account for Obamacare?..
AARP – Trusted Friend or Secret Foe?
“AARP operates as a non-profit advocate for its members and as one of the most powerful lobbying groups in the United States. AARP has two affiliated organizations: AARP Services Inc. which is managed wholly for profit, and the AARP Foundation which operates on a non-profit basis.” (Wikiedia – empasis mine)
“With reports that the AARP may bank $1 billion from ObamaCare — a law the non-profit organization lobbied hard for — three Republicans on the House Ways and Means committee have sent a letter to the Internal Revenue Service calling for an investigation into the tax-exempt status of AARP.” READ MORE
PERSPECTIVE: AARP is the product of the National Retired Teachers Association (NRTA), which Andrus established in 1947 to promote her philosophy of “productive aging.” Today, NRTA is a division within AARP. She believed that retired teachers were living on seemingly small pensions, often without any health insurance, so she approached more than 30 companies to offer health insurance to retired teachers. Finally, she found someone willing to take a chance on NRTA members in 1956. After ten years, Andrus opened the organization to all Americans over 50, creating AARP. According to Andy Rooney, AARP was established by insurance salesman Leonard Davis in 1958, after he met Ethel Percy Andrus.
