"Behind The Veil: The AARP America Doesn't Know". This was an Investigative Report that documented a "Conflict of Interest" pattern that AARP(501c4 non-profit) and United Healthcare revenue relationship with insurance premiums. AARP-UHC offers Medicare insurance products nationwide. United Healthcare owned 35%+ of the Medicare insurance market. The investigative report was published by The Ways & Means Committee(Federal Report) had in-depth research by Representative Wally Herger(R-CA) and Dave Reichert (R-WA) that even back in 2011 AARP reached revenues of over $1.4 Billion back in 2009 and 2010. Majority of AARP's non-profit revenue coming from for profit insurance premiums and not thru memberships. https://bit.ly/3IVxNo4

Get your facts straight before you begin lambasting
