ILLINOIS TIMES
— The college crisis. Regional universities struggle to attract students amid funding challenges, changing demographics. Back in the good old days, I was able to work my way through college and graduate from NIU debt-free and owning a 1969 Dodge Charger SE in 1970. My parents provided me with room and board in their Crete home while I worked for the Park Forest Post Office 1966-1969 part-time while I took classes a UIC 1966-1968, weekends during my first semester at NIU in 1969, and full-time during of the summers of 1967, 1968, and 1969.

DAILY CALLER
— Universities Need To Come Clean About The Real Meaning Of ‘Meritocracy.’ According to my Democrat and RINO leaders, when Whites and males do better than minorities and females, it is because Whites and males benefit from discrimination against minorities and females. All the minorities and females who my  Democrat and RINO superiors promoted over me a) had less experience than I had, b) had less education than I had, c) had no professional certifications or fewer than I had, and/or had no professional license like the one I had.

— More Workers in Illinois Are Quitting Their Jobs. The longer that you work for the federal government, the harder that it is to get a job in the private sector. I started working for the federal government when I was 18 years old in 1966. My Democrat superiors forced me to resign in 1969. Nevertheless, Firestone Stores hired me in 1970 and Oldsmobile offered me a job in 1971. But the Firestone job did not really require the bachelor’s degree in management that I had and Oldsmobile withdrew its job offer saying that it had just agreed to stop hiring Whites to settle an EEOC complaint.

I would focus on those who shared many if not most of my demographics and who “cut deals” with my GAO superiors to keep their jobs as long as possible. I would focus on those who took the most/biggest adverse actions against me.
