AARP IS BRIBED BY LOBBIES
by Peter Moss
Open Letter to Alliance for Retired Americans
I read with great interest your mailing opposing the privateering (formerly
privatizing) of Social Security and reducing excessive drug profits and
prices. Petitioning existing Congressmen is ineffective and foolhardy
since they are all Suttonists: they go where the money is. They are bribed
to vote the Demopublican party line to make the rich richer, and they
do nothing else. You can read my proposed solutions on my web site, especially
Two Party Deception, Not System, Secure Social Security, Not
Junk Stock, and Universal Medicare, Not Private Insurance.
Here is something you can do that will be effective. AARP is supposed
to prevent privateering of Social Security and to lower drug prices and
profits, so why don't they? With 35 million members and votes, they could
impeach Bush and stop the Iraq massacre, so why don't they? I suspect
because AARP decision makers are bribed out of their skulls by the Wall
Street lobby and the pharma lobby. Proving that and convincing the AARP
members of it could lead to an AARP shake-up to replace all AARP decision
makers with people like you and I.
If you return my $10 check with a satisfactory personal reply, I will
sign it. Feel free to phone me if you prefer.
