You know, you can please some of the people, some of the time, but you sure can't please all the people all of the time. There are of people out there, you know the type, that feel they are owed a world with a white picket fence around it and they cry, bit#* and moan anytime they pull a little cash from their pockets to spend on things in their opinion are deemed unnecessary. They have no useful solutions of their own, just the will to complain. Personally I think the AMA is and has been a pretty good entity over the years, and the membership fee is and has been minimal for what the AMA really does to promote and keep this hobby alive and well, and it is not stickers and magazines. That said, I have zero patience for cheap humming bird aZZ#$ cry babies types that don't have anything of any real use to say, and only wish to tear down what others have worked hard to build.

not a complaint, just funny regarding the stickers. had one on my truck and people kept asking me what medical profession I was in. personally I could care less about the stickers.

To me , and I'm not joking here , I really have no problem with what I get for my $75 . Some may not like the magazine and I have seen posts where it was discussed that maybe the magazine isn't as profitable as it could or should be , and maybe it isn't , but as I've said in earlier posts for me it makes for good reading when stuck somewhere boring (like the Dr's office) and then I just leave it there for others to read when my appointment is over . Yes , I'll come right out and say it , I do most value the insurance , but I also place a great deal of importance on the fact that we have a nationwide organization to represent us . I just figure it gives the hobby a bit more , stature ? hobbycred ? presence ? not quite sure the exact word I'm looking for but you get the idea , legitimacy maybe ? , that we have enough participants to support the existence of a nationwide organization . I'd be even happier to see the hobby be able to support two or even more such organizations cause that would mean there were even more folks participating , the whole strength in numbers thing . One thing's for sure , I do feel I get more for my $75 AMA dollars than I get spending $75 bucks in a grocery store lately , the price of Beef especially is nutz lately !
