KANKAKEE DAILY JOUNAL
— Sick pay perk piles on more pension debt – Eric Kohn (DIERSEN: My Civil Service Retirement System pension is slightly higher because of this “perk.” Virtually all of my Democrat coworkers and subordinates in the federal government used far more sick days than I did. They hinted/implied/argued/shouted that I used far fewer sick days than they did a) because I was born with a silver spoon in my mouth, b) because I have always been privileged, c) because I avoided the draft, and d) because my wife and I gave up trying to have children, we did not adopt, and we did not become foster parents.)
http://www.daily-journal.com/opinion/editorials/sick-pay-perk-piles-on-more-pension-debt/article_cc569d8a-171b-5b15-86a1-f883e728d8aa.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Teachers in Illinois can roll two years worth of sick days into their total tenure of service to the state. This additional two years of service tacked on to the end of their career allows them to retire with an even bigger pension. More than 73,000 teachers have taken advantage of this sick-leave perk as of 2015. That will cost taxpayers $3.39 billion throughout the next 30 years. Perks such as this drive up spending and are a burden to taxpayers – and they’re ripe for reform. But instead of tackling spending reform, Illinois state senators are considering a budget proposal with multibillion-dollar tax hikes.)

I should write a book about those who hint/imply/argue/shout that I am a failure and who claim to be religious, conservative, and/or Republican.

http://thehill.com/policy/defense/318967-trump-mccain-feud-takes-new-turn
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Donald Trump and John McCain wrote a new chapter in their long feud this week, when the president ripped the Arizona GOP senator for emboldening the enemy by calling last month’s U.S. raid in Yemen a failure. The nasty jousting between a Republican president and senator was both unusual and predictable.)

NEW YORK TIMES
— ‘A Sense of Dread’ for Civil Servants Shaken by Trump Transition – MICHAEL D. SHEAR and ERIC LICHTBLAU (DIERSEN: Democrats run the federal government. If I was still working for the federal government, because I have always been a Republican, my Democrat superiors, Democrat supervisors, Democrat coworkers, and Democrat subordinates would have killed me by now, figuratively, if not literally.)
https://www.nytimes.com/2017/02/11/us/politics/a-sense-of-dread-for-civil-servants-shaken-by-trump-transition.html
(FROM THE ARTCILE: Across the vast federal bureaucracy, Donald J. Trump’s arrival in the White House has spread anxiety, frustration, fear and resistance among many of the two million nonpolitical civil servants who say they work for the public, not a particular president. At the Environmental Protection Agency, a group of scientists strategized this past week about how to slow-walk President Trump’s environmental orders without being fired. At the Treasury Department, civil servants are quietly gathering information about whistle-blower protections as they polish their résumés. At the United States Digital Service — the youthful cadre of employees who left jobs at Google, Facebook or Microsoft to join the Obama administration — workers are debating how to stop Mr. Trump should he want to use the databases they made more efficient to target specific immigrant groups.)

Two of five millennials would rather tell a potential partner about their STDs than their debt, a survey finds. – Suzanne Woolley (DIERSEN: When you were young, what debts did you have? In 1971, when I was 23, I took out a car loan to buy a new 1972 Corvette, but I paid that loan off quickly. In 1972, when I was 24, I took out a mortgage to buy a new town home in University Park. In 1974, when I was 25, I took out a mortgage to buy a studio condo in the Outer Drive East building in downtown Chicago. In 1976, when I was 27, I traded in that studio condo to the building’s developer and took out a mortgage to buy a one bedroom condo in the building.)
