WALL STREET JOURNAL
— California’s Board Diversity Tax A study finds that a director mandate cost
companies $60 billion. – Editorial (DIERSEN: While I worked for the federal
government in Chicagoland for almost 30 years, my superiors were always under
tremendous pressure from Democrat Chicagoland Democrats a) to hire, retain, and
promote young Democrat minorities and young Democrat females and b) to make way
for them by getting rid of their employees who were Republican, White, male,
older, and/or non-veteran.
https://www.wsj.com/articles/californias-board-diversity-tax-11573256678
(FROM THE ARTICLE:
Democrats in California work hard to punish businesses and sometimes they
succeed without trying. Consider a 2018 law that imposes gender quotas for
boards of public companies based in the state, which a new study finds
effectively destroyed $60 billion in wealth over night. Last September the
state enacted a law requiring all public companies headquartered in California
to have at least one female director by the end of 2019 and two by the end of
2021. Democrats claimed that increasing board diversity would benefit
corporations. Investors supposedly needed politicians to tell them what was in
their best financial interest.)

RAW STORY
— Americans have more debt, need family help to buy homes: report – Agence
France-Presse (DIERSEN: I bought a new town home in University Park in 1972
when I was 24 years old. Where did the down payment money come from for your
first home? For me, it came from what I had earned and saved a) working for IRS
for 15 months in 1971 and 1972 and b) working for Firestone Stores full-time
for 7 months and part-time for 18 months 1970-1972. That money also enabled me
to buy a new Corvette in 1971 and to pay tuition for graduate business courses
at Loyola.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: The
report also showed that more buyers are waiting longer before buying their
first home — the median age hit 33 for the first time — and an increasing
number are joining forces with friends rather than partners or spouses in order
to be able to afford a place in their desired location, the report showed.)
