"Whining AARP retirees look only in the mirror"
This writer makes some interesting points on this issue; however, in difficult times, we all do tend to defend our own positions.
We shouldn't lose sight of the fact that our elected officials are the ones that put us in this position, and those same elected officials would like nothing better than distractions like these to help keep their malfeasance out of the limelight.
PS - I'm also no fan and not a member of the A.A.R.P...

I found this in an article by Burns in the Houston Chronicle:
"As far as I can tell, the goal of the AARP — formerly known as the American Association of Retired Persons — is to enslave all those of working age. Once enslaved, workers will support retirees in the style to which the AARP feels they are entitled.
This would be good for the AARP because its real business is selling products to older people by direct mail, and the more income older people have, the better it is for the AARP.
Too bad about everyone else."
