Special Interest Group Leaders Represent Themselves




Taxpayer money is showered on illegal immigrants. Diverting that to elders would be remarkable. Excess of money, bureaucrats take from working men and women is appropriated based on effectiveness of lobbyists. Harvard University, e.g., has three full time lobbyists in Washington, D.C. Leadership of older American organizations e.g., AARP are run by elitists who work for themselves, as teachers union leaders and politicians do. Plenty of older Americans. But they are disorganized. Three wealthy and powerful victim groups focus on the interests of their leadership too, i.e., black racism lobby, homosexual lobby, and women. This column mentions the BLGTP faction of elders, and the ADA. Unlike the BLGTP lobby, persons with disabilities remain forgotten except during campaigns and budget deliberations. Politicians know they can fool enough people to get elected employing useful idiot journalists. Elder persons and disabled persons refuse to recognize the role of misguided journalists, who act more and more like politicians every day. Instead of whining get out there and embarrass those with taxpayer money and access to media. You can't change the world. But you can embarrass the guilty.
