AARP appears to be a broker for insurance companies specializing in supplementary insurance for Medicare insured. Their advertising budget had to be enormous. Earnings from any policy to those companies must come back to AARP. Therefore, AARP appears to have changed its charter and is now functioning as a business. I wonder what AARP's tax classification is and what its earnings from insurance companies are compared to paid memberships.

I also have noticed that AARP appears to be an advocate for universal health-care as proposed by Obama, etc. Is this what its membership is comfortable with? I suspect not and would not be surprised with reduction in membership as a result of its current support of the Democratic leadership and the proposed health care statute.
