…and becomes by the people, for the people.
They called to meeting to ‘listen’! REALLY? And WTF is wrong with that snotty bitch?
As for not telling members what legislation to support? ‘We do not endorse’. LIES. That’s why we quit! They sent out magazines full of propaganda on what presidential candidate to support and how gun control was a ‘great’ thing. We quit. Period.
AARP treats everyone over 50 like they’re brain dead. At least most of the people in the room want their dues back! LOL!
I’ve got chills.

Who does that bitch think she’s talking to? Those are adults, not second graders. (I like the way she takes her microphone and storms out… just like a Lib to take away their toys if everyone doesn’t play their game.)
And that idiot talking about insurance companies making profits? THEY’RE SUPPOSED TO BE PROFITABLE! That’s how the STOCKHOLDERS make money.
Why do these people hate Capitalism so much? It’s what allows them to enjoy their lifestyle?
(By the way, I’m reporting this post… those obviously planted old people seem a little “fishy” to me.)

It’s so maddening to watch something like this; I start yelling at the screen… Fucking socialist pricks! The insurance companies MUST be bad because they make money!! GASP!
Fortunately, these people in the meeting have been around and seen a few things, like Nazi Germany.

Wow! Go you old fuddy duddies! Rock on Texas!

Old fuddy duddies? My husband is older than that one guy that spoke!
…still has all his ‘faculties’, too…

They’ll be scheduling his “end of life” counseling soon, I presume? I’m not sure what the age limit is…
Wait… are we starring in a remake of “Logan’s Run”?

No shit! Ubama likes to talk about having ’skin in the game’… well, for some of us it’s a bit more literal than figurative…!

i’m an old fuddy duddy, and i’m a little younger than you

if the “whatever they are”, used just half the energy they attack us and Capitalism with in a positive way, they would not need Feds to take care of them – they would also be able to live their own life and stay the f__k out of ours. Did I miss anything?

No, I think you covered everything.

What gets me is how these clowns are always trying to scare us. Oh! I’m so frighted by these pinched faced women and these union thugs! Oh, somebody help me!
Right. After getting two clusters on my Viet Nam Service Ribbon, I’m just so scared! Sorry, those old folks at that meeting are veterans or the families of veterans. We came to adulthood when the Draft was looming over everyone. Most of us served. Some others avoided it all, and now they are supposed to scare us? Sorry, you can kill me, sure. Scare me? Hardly. Take away the microphone? I can still shout.

Exactly. The folks who came to the meeting wanting answers to their questions aren’t going to just shut up and go away. They’ve seen the same ’socialization’ of countries occur elsewhere and don’t want it happening here.
