Maybe it could support itself with dues and contributions from organizations and businesses which benefit from its existence, much like other professional associations.

If heavily pay-walled content is the only way for the association to exist, perhaps its time for the AAA to be replaced by an organization that is capable of doing what the AAA does in a more cost efficient manner.

I have no personal knowledge of the AAA-debate, though it seems identical to every other discussion going on everywhere.
I think we are experiencing a true cognitive dissonance… ^_^
