(COMMENT: Should everyone be required to disclose how much money their parents have given them? Neither of my outstanding parents attended college. My father was the first of his ancestors to earn a high school diploma. He fought brittle type 1 diabetes from age 14, worked in the office of a nasty chemical plant in Chicago Heights, almost always worked second jobs to pay the family’s bills, did not buy a new car until he was 45 in 1967 and it was a bottom of the line 2-door Chevy, and died suddenly of heart failure in 1969. My mother never attended high school. I got a financial hardship draft deferment 1970-1971 to help support my mother and brother.)

According to my critics/opponents who have been Republican candidates on ballots in my precinct since 2000, I should be grateful that they LET ME HELP ELECT THEM. They hint/imply/argue/shout that my efforts to help elect them (getting signatures on nominating petitions, getting campaign sign locations, delivering their campaign literature, promoting their fundraisers, organizing Republican support for Wheaton Independence Day parades and fireworks, etc.) COST THEM MANY VOTES a) BECAUSE I am “too conservative,” b) BECAUSE I support the traditional marriage/family, right to life, immigration, illegal drugs, immigration, and equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) planks in the Republican Party platform, c) BECAUSE I have included links to articles in GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters that they do not like, d) BECAUSE I have sued people in DuPage County, Milton Township, and Wheaton who have lots of religious, financial, government, and/or political clout, and e) BECAUSE my demographics are terrible – conservative, Republican, American, White, male, old (born in 1948), draft avoider, heterosexual, married, childless, non-poor, gun owner, Christian, Protestant, 100% German American, my ancestors have been in America since 1844, federal employee for almost 30 years, retired federal employee for more than 24 years, DuPage County, Milton Township, and Wheaton resident only since 1978, not interested in sports, non-dog owner, American nameplate vehicle owner, etc.)

— The 23-Year-Olds Want to Run the Office – Emma Goldberg
(COMMENT: What did you do the year that you turned 23? I turned 23 in 1971. I lived with my mother and brother in Crete. My father had died suddenly in October of 1969. I started the year working as the Retail Sales Manager for the Firestone Store in Chicago Heights, taking a graduate business management course at UIC, and awaiting a decision on my application for a financial hardship draft deferment. That application was approved, and because of my draft lottery number, I was no longer subject to the draft. I believe that prompted Oldsmobile to offer me a job which I accepted. But when I told my Firestone boss, he immediately and rudely fired me. But then, Oldsmobile withdrew its job offer saying that it had just agreed to stop hiring Whites to settle an EEOC complaint. That directly resulted in my accepting a job offer from IRS to be a GS-7 (currently $48,445/year) Revenue Officer in Chicago. But then, my Firestone boss offered me a part-time job pumping gasoline which I accepted. Before I started working for IRS and working part-time for Firestone, I went on a spring break vacation in the Bahamas. My 1969 Dodge Charger SE was stolen in Chicago in August. That directly resulted in my buying a new 1972 Corvette and a 1962 Chevy Bel Air for everyday use. At the end of the year, IRS granted my request to be assigned to its Harvey office.)

— Equity Partner Says Chicago Firm Trying To Force Retirement – Lauraann Wood
(COMMENT: I should write a book about Diersen v. GAO. In 1997, when I was 49 years old, my Democrats GAO superiors forced me to take their early retirement “offer” a) to further punish me for my opposing their political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation, b) to further punish me for my becoming an active member in a class action lawsuit in 1988 that charged them with reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation, and c) to allow them to give my job and my preferred corner office to my Black subordinate, which they did. Previously, they had given me unfair performance expectations and appraisals, always ranked me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance purposes, did not promote me beyond GS-13, got rid of my mentor in 1987 who had hired me in 1980, got me assigned to audits of IRS in 1986, and promoted me in 1986, kept me off audits of IRS for all but 3 (1986-1988) of the almost 18 years that I worked for GAO, and forced me to take a $20,361 (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980. In my book, I would focus on RINO federal elected officials in Illinois, their staff members, political consultants, major donors, fundraisers, pollsters, campaign managers, campaign staff members, and staff members who sided with my Democrat GAO superiors.)

— ‘An especially important step?’ Or “a dark day for Illinois?’ Lawmakers’ repeal of parental notification of abortion law rekindles divide. Legislators in the state House voted to repeal the notification law, sending the measure to Gov. J.B. Pritzker’s desk. Pritzker is expected to sign the measure into law, but his office did not respond to a request for comment after the Legislature passed the repeal. – Rachel Hinton

https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/restoring-america/fairness-justice/in-the-era-of-wokeness-a-white-male-wins-a-discrimination-case
(FROM THE ARTICLE: In a world of woke extremism, one North Carolina man stood up to the bullies and won. David Duvall, a former Novant Health executive, was awarded $10 million after being fired for discriminatory reasons, WNCT reported. Duvall is a white male and asserted he was replaced in his job for purposes of diversity, not merit. For five years, Duvall was the senior vice president for marketing and communications at Novant before he lost his job. Luke Largess, Duvall’s attorney, stated , “he was fired and replaced by two women, one a racial minority, during a Diversity and Inclusion initiative in 2018 that included explicit goals to remake the demographics of Novant’s senior leadership.” Duvall took his case to the courts, and a jury sided with him. WNCT reported that a jury in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of North Carolina’s Charlotte Division found that Duvall demonstrated “that his race (Caucasian) and/or his sex (male) was a motivating factor in Novant Health’s decision to terminate him.” Furthermore, the jury decided that Novant Health did not prove “that it would have made the same decision to terminate David Duvall regardless of his race (Caucasian) and/or his sex (male).”)

https://www.newsbusters.org/blogs/nb/lydia-switzer/2021/10/27/dem-hypocrites-cnn-still-full-panic-over-gop-redistricting
(FROM THE ARTICLE: When Republicans redistrict, CNN lambasts their partisanship, but when Democrats gerrymander? Radio silence. Last week, John Avlon accused Texas Republicans of crafting a “blatantly partisan, pro-white map,” while ignoring the proposed Illinois congressional map giving even more power to Democrats; the map, according to FiveThirtyEight, would add one Democratic seat and subtract two Republican seats. This would leave only 3 out of 17 House seats to Republicans (17.6% of seats), despite 40% of Illinois citizens voting for Trump in 2020.)

— A Wealth Tax. What are the pluses and minuses? – David Leonhardt
(COMMENT: The more of your income that you spend on immediate pleasures (vacations, spectator sports, fancy restaurant meals, pets, booze, gambling, pot, etc.), the less wealth that you will have.)
https://www.nytimes.com/2021/10/28/briefing/wealth-tax-spending-bill-manchin.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Most Americans pay an annual wealth tax on their largest asset. It’s called property tax. Each year, they pay an amount equal to a small percentage of the estimated value of their house, and a house is by far the most valuable item that most families own. The very rich are different. While they pay property taxes too, their homes tend to make up a tiny share of their net worth. The bulk of their assets are not taxed. In past decades, other taxes — like the corporate tax (the burden of which falls on stockholders) and the estate tax — served almost as de facto wealth taxes. But those other taxes have declined, causing the total federal tax rate on the wealthy to plummet 🙂

WALL STREET JOURNAL
— The Accelerating Illinois Gerrymander. Democrats debate an even more extreme map than before. – Editorial
(COMMENT: I should write a book about the Democrat plants and the RINOs who gerrymandered my DuPage County Milton Township Precinct 9 in Wheaton in 2015. To get rid of me, they drew me into the same precinct with Jeanne Ives. Previously, they had a) ended my TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois chairmanship in 2012, b) ended my Wheaton Chamber of Commerce Government Affairs Committee membership in 2011, c) ended my Milton Township Republican Organization (MTRO) webmaster service in 2010 and 2004, d) ended my Illinois Center Right Center (ICRC) Steering Committee membership in 2007, e) tried to get ICRC to censure me for my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters in 2006, f) viciously ended my bid to serve as the MTRO Treasurer in 2004, and g) ended my American Association of Political Consultants Midwest Chapter board membership in 2004.)

SUBURBAN CHICAGOLAND
— Illinois quickly becoming a one-party tyranny as bad officials drag it down – Ray Hanania
https://suburbanchicagoland.com/2021/10/27/illinois-quickly-becoming-a-one-party-tyranny-as-bad-officials-drag-it-down/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Failed Democrats like Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot and Cook County State’s Attorney Kim Foxx are not only dragging Cook County down the tubes but they are also dragging the state down with it. Failure of officials like Gov. J.B. Pritzker to speak out against Lightfoot and Foxx tend to aggravate the state’s dysfunctional policies as businesses and homeowners flee to other states. Among those leaving are Chicago Police officers who are being chased out by Lightfoot’s failed policies. The Chicago mess is reflected in the tightening grip Democrats have on the congressional seats as diversity in views vanishes and undermines the public understanding of issues.)
