How the AARP Made $2.8 Billion By Supporting Obamacare's Cuts to Medicare Posted: 21 Sep 2012 05:13 PM PDT As you know if you've been reading this blog, Obamacare cuts $716 billion from Medicare in order to pay for its expansion of coverage to low-income Americans. It's one of the reasons why seniors are more opposed to the new health law than any other age group. So why is it that the group that purports to speak for seniors, the American Association of Retired Persons, so strongly supports a law that most seniors oppose? According to an explosive new report from Sen. Jim DeMint (R., S.C.), it's because those very same Medicare cuts will give the AARP a windfall of $1 billion in insurance profits, and preserve another $1.8 billion that AARP already generates from its business interests. |
