NEWS CHANNEL 20
— Majority of Sangamon County races will automatically go to Republican candidate – Jakob Emerson
https://newschannel20.com/news/local/majority-of-sangamon-county-races-will-automatically-go-to-republican-candidate
(FROM THE ARTICLE: When you fill out your ballot this election season, you may notice many of the local races in Sangamon County are uncontested. Out of the 20 county races this year, 11 will automatically go to the Republican candidate because no Democratic candidate filed. In comparison, two uncontested races will automatically go to the Democratic candidate due to no Republican candidates filing. Kent Redfield is an Emeritus Professor of Political Science at the University of Illinois Springfield. He says the lack of Democrats running in Sangamon County is partly due to the state party’s focus and support moving north to Cook County and Chicago. “To recruit candidates, you need organization, you need a certain amount of money,” Redfield said. “The Sangamon County Democrats are down, and it’s very hard to build back up.” Redfield also said Sangamon County was a competitive race in the past, but voting patterns outside the City of Springfield have trended more conservative for decades. In total, five county positions and 15 county board positions are on the ballot for residents in 2020.)

Tax evasion is illegal. Tax avoidance is legal. What did you do to avoid paying higher federal taxes? Instead of renting, I bought the following and deducted mortgage interest and real estate taxes: a) a new town home in University Park in 1972, b) a studio condo in the Outer Drive East (ODE) building in downtown Chicago in 1974, and c) a one bedroom condo in the ODE building in 1976. My wife and I bought a home in Wheaton in 1978 and we had one built in Wheaton in 1984. Instead of spending my time and money on other things, I paid for and deducted tuition, fees, and books a) to earn a job-related MBA from Loyola on 1976, b) to pass the job-related CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, c) to earn a job-related master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980, d) to pass the job-related Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt in 1981, and e) to earn a job-related master’s degree in financial markets and trading from IIT in 1997.)

INSIDE PUBLIC ACCOUNTING
— The Illinois CPA Society wants to find out what’s driving the decline in individuals pursuing the CPA credential. (DIERSEN: My Democrat IRS superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates were furious when I passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979 when I was 30 years old. It frustrated their efforts to get rid of me just like my earning an MBA from Loyola in 1976 did.)
http://insidepublicaccounting.com/2020/09/whats-clogging-the-cpa-pipeline/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: To that end, the organization has launched a new in-depth research project, anchored by a survey aimed at understanding why some accounting students and young professionals don’t finish or never even consider the CPA exam. Through the survey, targeting accounting and finance students and professionals under the age of 35, ICPAS hopes to uncover trends and key issues that will provide a deeper understanding of the perceptions and value drivers that separate those pursuing a CPA from those who take a pass. The survey results will be used to help develop strategies for promoting the CPA credential and ensuring its sustainability and relevance moving forward. “Earning the CPA credential is one of the most notable ways to establish your professional identity and exhibit a high level of competence in the accounting and finance profession, yet we are witnessing a nationwide decline in new CPAs,” says ICPAS president and CEO Todd Shapiro. “While this trend is not unique to Chicago, Illinois or the Midwest, as a professional membership organization serving CPAs for nearly 120 years, we feel compelled to try to identify the driving factors for the decline.”)
