Membership is cheap and they send you stuff to read that is sometimes interesting. Only real direct benefit I see is hotel discounts that are redundant if you have AAA. I support them because they are a strong advocate to NOT have Social Security and Medicare gutted, which will constantly be on the table going forward given our country’s unsustainable debt.
