— House passes Democrats’ historic election bill – Gabriella Muñoz and Stephen Dinan (DIERSEN: Government is nasty. Politics is nasty. Are you a Republican Precinct Committeeman? I have been one since 1999. What discourages you the most from helping elect Republican candidates in your precinct? For me, it is knowing the success that Democrat plants, Libertarian plants, Green plants, and RINOs in the Milton Township Republican Central Committee, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, and Illinois Republican Party have had a) in painting me as being a White supremacist, Nazi, KKK member, hater, racist, sexist, bigot, and even worse things and b) in turning voters in my precinct against me. They hint/imply/argue/shout at voters in my precinct that the more that I promote a candidate, the more that candidate is a White supremacist, Nazi, KKK member, hater, racist, sexist, bigot, and even worse things. I should write a book about the aforesaid.)

— If Google can’t kill the gender pay gap, who can? – Tim Worstall (DIERSEN: What did you do to qualify yourself for better paying jobs? I earned a) a job-related bachelor’s degree when I was 21 in 1970 and job-related master’s degrees when I was 27, 31, and 48, b) job-related professional certifications when I was 30, 32, 41, 45, 47, and 48, and c) a job-related professional license when I was 32. Virtually none of my Democrat superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and in federal government did that. To get better paying jobs, they helped their superiors get rid of employees who were Republican, White, male, and/or non-veteran who had not made GS-13 (currently $96,403) by age 25, GS-14 (currently $113,920) by age 30, GS-15 (currently $134,000) by age 35, and Senior Executive Service (currently $164,200) by age 40, that is, they helped implement Affirmative Action, Diversity, Inclusion, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, age discrimination, retaliation, up-or-out, and even worse things.)

— The Left vs. Life in General – Deana Chadwell
https://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2019/03/the_left_vs_life_in_general.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The concepts of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness are dear, or once were dear, to the hearts of all Americans. These are the sacred rights of all human beings — “sacred” because they are God-given and are not derived from government, rather government’s only mandate is to provide cover for those rights. However, due to decades of twisted school curricula, and of postmodern, subjective journalism, we’ve arrived at a place where a sizable percentage of our population finds equality, immorality, and environmentalism superior concepts. In fact the left finds these ideas so compelling that they are willing to sacrifice the lives of us all to impose widespread adherence to these new gods. Equality alone is deadly. Despite its description as “leveling the playing field” there is nothing level, nothing honest about it. The left openly wants to redistribute wealth as if a cosmic unfairness had declared some rich and some poor and government’s job is to rectify that. That attitude might have made sense back in feudal times, when upward mobility was close to impossible, but it makes no sense at all in a society where millions have manufactured their own wealth and the door of possibilities stands wide open. At least for now.)

CHICAGO TRIBUNE
— OUTSTANDING: High school students rally in Springfield against legalizing recreational marijuana; lawmaker coalition seeks slowdown in process – Robert McCoppin (DIERSEN: Needless-to-say, individuals, organizations, companies, governments, and countries that claim to be religious, conservative, and/or Republican should vehemently oppose legalizing recreational marijuana.)
https://www.chicagotribune.com/news/local/breaking/ct-met-students-rally-against-marijuana-legalization-20190306-story.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Alarmed by the movement to legalize recreational marijuana in Illinois, high school students, law enforcement officials and lawmakers rallied against pot in Springfield on Wednesday. A coalition of about 40 lawmakers, led by Democratic state Rep. Marty Moylan of Des Plaines and House Republican leader Jim Durkin of Western Springs, also is sponsoring a resolution to slow down the effort to allow sales and taxation of cannabis. The resolution, supported primarily by suburban and downstate lawmakers, calls for delaying legalization so that lawmakers and stakeholders may consider the societal costs and examine data from other states. To show their opposition to legalization, about 90 students from Stevenson High School in Lincolnshire, Mundelein High School, and Kankakee High School rallied in the Capitol rotunda and met with lawmakers, according to Jamie Epstein, adult co-sponsor of Stevenson’s Catalyst Club. Carson Ezell, a member of the Catalyst Club at Stevenson, cited studies that found those who start using marijuana when they are young are more likely to become addicted, and that heavy marijuana use at a young age can lower one’s IQ. “As a teen, I feel the industry is really targeting us, with a lot of edibles in candy and fruit flavors,” he said. “It’s really scary to me.” The Illinois Association of Chiefs of Police also took part in the rally, citing data from Colorado showing more traffic accidents, fatalities and overall hospitalizations involving people with signs of marijuana use in their bodies. A spokesman for the Illinois branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, Robert Moore, predicted that blacks will again be victimized by legalization through greater addiction, increased law enforcement penalties for drugged driving, and loss of jobs and public housing due to zero-tolerance drug policies. He also was skeptical of claims that the tax money will go to minority communities. “We don’t need an additional substance that’s going to impair our youth and citizens,” he said. “This is just bad legislation — bad for our community and bad for the nation.”)

Everyone in all the world knows that with its Affirmative Action, Diversity, Inclusion, and other policies, America gives tremendous preference to minorities, to females, to younger people, to those who have financial problems, to those who have health problems, to those who lack education, to those who lack job skills, to etc. Citizens of Hispanic countries see that ever-increasingly, America is forcing everyone in America to speak, read, and write Spanish. Of course, because of the aforesaid, citizens of Hispanic countries with the most severe problems are the most motivated to seek asylum in America.)

— Total household net worth in the fourth quarter of 2018 dropped by the largest amount since the fourth quarter of 2008 when the country was amid a steep recession, according to data released Thursday by the Federal Reserve. – Christopher Ingraham
https://www.washingtonpost.com/us-policy/2019/03/07/household-net-worth-falls-by-largest-amount-since-great-recession-new-fed-data-show/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The typical American household, however, may not feel much of a financial pinch as a result of the drop. For starters, stocks have since recovered much of their late 2018 losses, although they remain below the record highs set earlier in the year. More important, most of the household wealth in the United States is owned by the country’s richest families. In 2016, for instance, the top 1 percent of families owned 40 percent of all household wealth, with the next 9 percent of families holding an additional 29 percent. That leaves 21 percent of the country’s net worth for the remaining 90 percent of American families. Furthermore, about half of American families don’t own any stocks, while the top 10 percent of families control about 84 percent of the stock market. Taken together, the numbers are a reminder that the stock market is not the economy, and that big national-level data sets may not necessarily reflect financial reality for typical American families, many of whom live paycheck to paycheck and struggle to meet even small unexpected expenses.)

https://www.wsj.com/articles/can-the-worlds-wealthiest-absorb-the-high-end-home-glut-11551830488
(FROM THE ARTICLE: In Manhattan, there are around 500 homes asking $10 million and up, and a surfeit of mega-pricey properties is also appearing in Los Angeles and Miami. The growing glut of wildly expensive homes begs the question: Are there enough people who can afford them? Perhaps eventually. Despite a darkening economic outlook globally, a new survey suggests wealth creation will remain constant in 2019. The global population of ultrawealthy individuals—defined as having a net-worth of at least $30 million—is forecast to rise 22% to nearly 250,000 over the next five years, according to a recent report by international real-estate firm Knight Frank. That means an additional 43,000 people will be worth more than $30 million by 2023.)

— Draft registration and gender discrimination – Brett Kepley (DIERSEN: Were you draft bait? I was draft bait 1966-1971. Employers are extremely reluctant to hire, to retain, or to promote those who are draft bait. I graduated from NIU in August of 1970. During 1970 and 1971, potential employers did not believe that my application for a financial hardship draft deferment to help support my mother and brother would be approved. Consequently, in August of 1970, I took the only job that was offered me, a job that did not really require a college degree.)

They stress that I am a Trump supporter, Protestant (baptized, raised, and confirmed as a Missouri Synod Lutheran), conservative, patriotic, Republican, American, White, male, old (born in 1948), non-poor, gun owner, 100% German American, draft avoider, married, childless, pet-less, and my ancestors have been in America since 1844. They shout that the federal government grossly overpaid me and that my federal retirement benefits are much too generous. In my defense, my ancestors always lived in northeast Illinois, they all were Republicans, and they never had enough money to discriminate against anyone even if they wanted to.)

JACKSONVILLE JOURNAL COURIER
— It’s time to fix outdated system of military ‘draft’ – Editorial (DIERSEN: Were you draft bait? I was draft bait 1966-1971. Employers are extremely reluctant to hire, to retain, or to promote those who are draft bait. I graduated from NIU in August of 1970. During 1970 and 1971, potential employers did not believe that my application for a financial hardship draft deferment to help support my mother and brother would be approved. Consequently, in August of 1970, I took the only job that was offered me, a job that did not really require a college degree.)

FLORIDA POLITICS
— Anyone who runs a negative campaign will not run a positive administration – Janelle Irwin Taylor (DIERSEN: Candidates who really are Protestant, conservative, and/or Republican should expect that sooner or later, their opponents will run a negative campaign against them. In addition, candidates who are Trump supporters, patriotic, White, male, older, rich, gun owners, German American, draft avoiders, and/or those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time should expect that sooner or later, their opponents will use the aforesaid against them.)

https://www.illinoisreview.com/illinoisreview/2019/03/wheres-weyermuller-mingling-with-dupage-county-gopers.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: These are some of the issues in contention among the IL GOP faithful: Abortion 2nd amendment Border wall Illinois new minimum wage President Donald J Trump Some party leaders have indicated the IL GOP might have to take surveys of what Republicans believe and want for Illinois. Some Illinois Republicans do not wish to highlight these subjects. Many in the state – especially the conservative base – wants the party to ramp it up on these issues. The fact the Peter Roskam and Randy Hultgren lost their Congressional re-elections indicates they played it too close to the vest trying to be “moderate.” The days of Jim Edgar, Bruce Rauner, and Mark Kirk are over. To win elections in the future, Republicans need to go back to traditional values. Socialism and expansion of government with more tax, spend, regulate, and borrow needs to be shown that it doesn’t work. The Illinois GOP Platform needs to be inclusive, conservative, pro-family, pro 2nd amendment, pro less taxes, pro Trump, pro-freedom, and pro-America.)

https://www.nytimes.com/2019/02/28/opinion/ivanka-trump-social-mobility.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The key observation, based on a growing body of research, is that when it comes to upward social mobility, the U.S. is truly exceptional — that is, it performs exceptionally badly. Americans whose parents have low incomes are more likely to have low incomes themselves, and less likely to make it into the middle or upper class, than their counterparts in other advanced countries. And those who are born affluent are, correspondingly, more likely to keep their status.)

GALLUP
— Reparations and Black Americans’ Attitudes About Race – FRANK NEWPORT (DIERSEN: How much in reparations do your critics/opponents hint/imply/argue/shout that you should pay and why? My critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have always hinted/implied/argued/shouted that I should pay lots of reparations because I am White, male, old (born in 1948), Protestant (baptized, raised, and confirmed as a Missouri Synod Lutheran), conservative, Republican, non-poor, draft avoider, I worked for the federal government for almost 30 years, that is, I held jobs that minorities and females should have had instead of me, and my ancestors have been in America since 1844. In my defense, my ancestors have always lived in northeast Illinois and they discriminated against no one. In my defense, in 1997, I succumbed to my Democrat superiors and took their early retirement “offer” so that they could my job and my preferred corner office to a Democrat minority.)
https://news.gallup.com/opinion/polling-matters/247178/reparations-black-americans-attitudes-race.aspx
(FROM THE ARTICLE: One key finding: Only 18% of blacks are satisfied with the way blacks are treated in this country today, compared with 51% of whites who say they are satisfied with the way blacks are treated. Well over half of blacks believe that blacks are treated less favorably than whites in dealing with the police, in stores and malls, and on the job. About half of blacks say blacks are treated less favorably in neighborhood shops, in restaurants and in getting healthcare. More than one in five black Americans say that within the last 30 days they were treated unfairly in stores, in restaurants or by the police. Slightly fewer, but still substantial numbers, say that they have been treated unfairly at work or in receiving healthcare. A slight majority of blacks are pessimistic about the future, saying that relations between blacks and whites will always be a problem in this country. Black Americans also clearly believe that government actions should be taken to help bring about change. Over seven in 10 blacks favor affirmative action programs for racial minorities in this country, and a majority of 57% of whites agree. Previous Gallup research has shown that about two-thirds of black Americans believe the U.S. government should play a major role in trying to improve the social and economic position of blacks and other minority groups in this country. Over seven in 10 blacks believe that new civil rights laws are needed in this country to reduce discrimination against blacks. What about reparations per se? Several polls in recent years have shown majority black support for the concept. A YouGov online survey in 2014 showed roughly six in 10 black Americans said that the U.S. government should offer cash payments and education and job training programs to the descendants of slaves. A Kaiser Family Foundation/CNN survey from 2015 found that 52% of blacks said that “as a way to make up for the harm caused by slavery” the government should “make cash payments to Black Americans who are descendants of slaves” (8% of whites agreed). A Marist poll from 2016 showed that 58% of blacks supported the idea for reparations for African-American descendants of slaves. Overall, blacks in the U.S. have continuing concerns about discrimination and structural impediments to their success, and most believe that the government must step in and do more to help this situation. The concept of reparations per se is broad, and the exact level of black support for the idea depends on how it is defined. But we know that at least a majority of blacks appear from past polling to be in favor — not surprising given the general context of black support for the government actively addressing race inequalities in the U.S. today.)

Adjusted for inflation, wages for the top 5 percent of earners rose from $50.46 an hour in 2000 to $63.10 in 2018, an increase of 25 percent. The median worker’s hourly wage, meanwhile, rose by 7 percent over that period, to $18.80. The divide was particularly stark among men: The wages of the top 5 percent of male workers rose by 42 percent from 2000 to 2018, while those of the median male worker rose by 0.8 percent. One way to capture that dispersion is to look at the ratio between wages at the top and wages at the middle. In 2000, for instance, the top 5 percent of workers earned 2.87 times as much, per hour, as the typical, or median, worker. By 2018, that ratio had increase to 3.36. Among men only, the ratio between the top 5 percent and the median increased from 2.83 to 3.98. However, there was little change in wage variation at the bottom of the distribution: The median worker earned roughly twice as much as the bottom 10 percent of workers in 2000 and 2018, among all workers and among men only.)

— Pritzker makes DC debut as governor; joins with Cuomo to protest Trump tax hit – Lynn Sweet (DIERSEN: Trump should increase the $10,000 SALT cap to $20,000 for married filing jointly.)
https://chicago.suntimes.com/news/pritzker-cuomo-state-local-taxes-deduction-trump-national-governors-association/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: At issue is what is nicknamed the “SALT” (state and local taxes) provision in the Trump tax bill Republicans pushed through Congress in 2017 that placed a $10,000 cap on federal income taxes deductions for state and local taxes. In states like Illinois and New York, with higher state and property taxes, the SALT cap could outweigh other breaks in the tax bill. Cuomo organized the “Governors Coalition for Tax Fairness,” with five Democratic governors on Friday kicking off a lobbying drive to lift the SALT cap. The new Democratic run House has the votes to restore or revise the SALT cap; the GOP controlled Senate is likely to resist, because the added revenues were needed to finance what Cuomo and other Democrats call a “tax cut for the rich.” “The states that have state and local taxes tend to be Democratic states. I’m sure that was a coincidence,” Cuomo said with muted sarcasm. He added the “politically motivated” SALT cap “was a declaration of civil war between Democratic states and Republican states.” Pritzker said the SALT cap could impact some two million Illinoisans “in a very negative way.” Almost every Illinois Democrat in Congress is protesting the loss of a full SALT deduction on federal income taxes.)

— Too many journalists see their work as an opportunity to promote their own pet political notions, rather than a responsibility to inform the public and let their readers and viewers decide for themselves. (DIERSEN: I should write a book about those who state that they are religious, conservative, and/or Republican, but who make it clear that they do not want me to use GOPUSA ILLINOIS emails a) to promote the traditional family, right to life, immigration, Second Amendment, illegal drugs, equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving), and/or other planks in the Illinois Republican Party platform and the Republican Party platform, b) to promote the Milton Township Republican Central Committee resolution against video gambling, and/or c) to oppose promoting dependency on government, dependency on charity, LGBTQ activity, abortion, mass/illegal immigration, abolition of the First and Second Amendments, booze, gambling, pot, and other vices, patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and other bad things.)

THE HILL
— Firing bad federal government workers should not be difficult – TOM SCHATZ (DIERSEN: According to my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes, I was a bad federal government worker. They stress that my superiors forced me to retire in 1997 when I was 49 years old and took other adverse actions against me before that. They reject my argument that my superiors wasted my career and got rid of me a) because I complained about political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation and b) because I became an active member in a class action lawsuit in 1988 that charged them with reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation. They stress that my Republican U.S. Senators and Republican U.S. Representatives did not come to my defense.)
https://thehill.com/opinion/finance/431187-firing-bad-federal-government-workers-should-not-be-difficult
(FROM THE ARTICLE: A significant hurdle to getting rid of bad federal employees is the Merit Systems Protection Board. The agency was originally created to ensure the effectiveness of human capital in the federal government, but it has since metastasized into an institutional nightmare that makes it almost impossible to fire any worker for any reason. Through the early 1880s, the federal civil service operated under a spoils system by which the winning political party gave civil service jobs to its supporters. This system caused large numbers of government employees to be replaced every time there was an administration change, and it led to an insecure federal workforce. It routinely drove thousands of job seekers to Washington who believed they were owed a job based on their political support of the president. The spoils system was abolished after the assassination of James Garfield by a disgruntled federal job seeker. Reforms were enacted over the years to establish principles for handling federal employees and adjudicating appeals of removal. The Merit Systems Protection Board was created in 1978 as an independent authority to manage federal employee appeals of furlough, suspension, retirement, and removal decisions. It can develop its own legal procedures, call witnesses, issue subpoenas, and enforce the compliance of federal agencies with its internal decisions. Of the two million federal employees within the jurisdiction of the Merit Systems Protection Board, around 200,000 leave the government each year, but only about 10,000 are removed for performance or misconduct reasons. The rest retire, resign, or finish a temporary appointment.)

— Oberweis eyeing 14th Congressional run against Underwood – James Fuller
https://www.dailyherald.com/news/20190219/oberweis-eyeing-14th-congressional-run-against-underwood
(FROM THE ARTICLE: In 2004, a U.S. Senate campaign commercial featuring dairy magnate Jim Oberweis flying over Soldier Field with a warning that, “Illegal aliens are coming here to take American workers’ jobs,” was a doomed introduction to the national political stage. Fifteen years later, a modified version of that message may help propel him into Congress. In an interview, Oberweis confirmed reports he’ll seek the 14th Congressional District seat represented by newly-elected Democrat Lauren Underwood in the next cycle. And he said he’s learned a lot about politics and cooperating across the aisle since 2004. Much of that education stems from his service as an Illinois state senator from Sugar Grove since 2013. He pointed to his support for legalizing medical marijuana and successfully raising some speed limits to 70 mph as examples of where he’s listened to both sides of an issue. Oberweis also sponsored legislation to raise the state’s minimum wage. His bill would have raised it gradually to $10 per hour, in what he believes was a more realistic increase. He sees Illinois’ new plan to gradually increase the minimum wage to $15 as a threat to the number of available jobs and the motivation for upward mobility. “A $15 minimum wage is going to create problems for people wanting to enter the workforce,” Oberweis said. “Minimum wage jobs are designed to teach people how to work and how to secure employment. They are not meant to be the end of the line, feed-my-family-of-four kind of job.” . . . “I still feel immigration is a significant problem with a potentially significant cost,” Oberweis said. “On the other hand, those kids who were brought here by their parents and only know this country? We don’t blame kids for the mistakes of their parent. I’m much more inclined to talk about a path to citizenship for those kids than their parents who broke laws.” Oberweis said he also doesn’t believe in family separation. So the compromise is a nonimmigrant visa for those parents. That visa would allow them to remain in the country but not become citizens or be eligible for government benefits.)

They hint/imply/argue/shout that my Democrat superiors in the federal government and others took adverse actions against me because I am a White supremacist, Nazi, KKK member, hater, racist, sexist, bigot, and even worse things.

IN THESE TIMES
— We’ve Been Fighting for $15 For 7 Years. Today I’m Celebrating a Historic Victory. – JEFF SCHUHRKE (DIERSEN: Did you ever work for the minimum wage? I did 1964-1966 washing dishes in the basement of the S.S. Kresges in Chicago Heights during my junior and senior years at Crete-Monee High School. If S.S. Kresges had to pay me $15/hour in today’s dollars back then, it probably would have illegally hired an illegal instead of me. If you had earned $15/hour in today’s dollars when you were young, what would you have done with that money? I did not start earning $15/hour in today’s dollars until I was 18 in September of 1966. I earned far less than $15/hour in today’s dollars when I did yard work and delivered newspapers 1962-1964; washed dishes 1964-1966; and cleaned golf shoes, chipped slag, and pumped gasoline in 1966. If had earned $15/hour in today’s dollars 1962-1966, I probably would have bought a new loaded 1966 Pontiac GTO in 1966 instead of the new 1966 Pontiac Tempest Sprint that I bought. What job requirements did you have to meet before you first earned $15/hour in today’s dollars? Job requirements that I had to meet in 1966 included: be a United States citizen, be 18 years old, have a high school diploma, pass an employment test, pass a physical examination, have a driver’s license, pass a truck driving test, pass a background investigation, and have a car to use to make deliveries with.)

GOPUSA ILLINOIS
— If you help fill a void, what void do you help fill? Since 2000, I have increasingly helped fill a tremendous communications void in Illinois, in DuPage County, in Milton Township, and in Wheaton. The individuals, organizations, companies, and governments that dominate Republican politics in Illinois, DuPage County, Milton Township, and Wheaton do not want anyone to promote the traditional family, right to life, immigration, Second Amendment, illegal drugs, equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving), and other planks in the Illinois Republican Party (IRP) platform and in the Republican Party platform. I help fill the aforesaid tremendous communications void with GOPUSA ILLINOIS emails. Those who do not want me to do that work against me. If you are not going to defend and advance the IRP platform and the Republican Party platform, you should not seek or hold any kind of elected or appointed government or political office as a Republican in Illinois, DuPage County, Milton Township, or Wheaton. – Dave Diersen

https://chicago.suntimes.com/cannabis/pritzker-budget-boost-education-recreational-marijuana-money-freeze-income-tax-sports-betting-vaping/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: In his first budget address, Democratic Gov. J.B. Pritzker plans to pitch an “austere” spending blueprint with no increase in the state income tax rate, a bump in education funding and revenue from business licenses to sell recreational marijuana. Pritzker told the Chicago Sun-Times he will also push for taxes on e-cigarettes and vaping, and for the legalization of sports betting to help bring in more immediate revenue. As for his plan to legalize recreational marijuana — which will take time to negotiate and pass in the Illinois General Assembly — the governor’s office said the budget is “banking some revenues,” from legalizing marijuana, “but just from the selling of the licenses.”)

SPRINGFIELD STATE JOURNAL REGISTER
— New GOP exec director – Bernard Schoenburg
https://www.sj-r.com/opinion/20190112/bernard-schoenburg-davis-votes-for-funding-on-agency-by-agency-basis
(FROM THE ARTICLE: ANTHONY SARROS, a Decatur native who has also lived in Springfield and is now in Chicago, is the new executive director of the Illinois Republican Party. Sarros, 28, went to Mount Zion High School and has a political science degree, with a minor in business, from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. His parents still live in Decatur. Sarros was political director of Gov. BRUCE RAUNER’S re-election campaign, and had earlier been political director of the state GOP, data director for the House Republican Organization, and field office manager on Rauner’s 2014 campaign. When LaHood first ran for Congress in special primary and general elections in 2015, Sarros was deputy campaign manager and field director. Before getting into politics, he worked in jobs including being assistant to the Midwest scout for the Pittsburgh Pirates. “In the wake of the 2018 election, Republicans have the opportunity to offer a stark contrast from the governing Democrats to the voters in Illinois,” Sarros said. “It will be a challenge.” Sarros took over for TRAVIS STERLING, who took a job as director of development at the American Principles Project. That Arlington, Virginia-based organization also has an executive director from Illinois — TERRY SCHILLING, son of and one-time campaign manager for former U.S. Rep. BOBBY SCHILLING, R-Colona. The elder Schilling won a single term in the old 17th Congressional District in 2010, when that oddly shaped district included part of Springfield.)

— Lowering taxes at top of list for self-made man, mayoral candidate Wilson – Glenn Minnis (DIERSEN: Are you “self-made?” My critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes would shout that I am not. They would shout that I was a lowly failed wage-earner 1964-1997 and I have been a lowly failed retiree since 1997.)
https://chicagocitywire.com/stories/511766880-lowering-taxes-at-top-of-list-for-self-made-man-mayoral-candidate-wilson
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Enter the 70-year-old Wilson, who is running for mayor of Chicago amid a field of candidates that seems to grow by the day. Wilson, a self-made millionaire businessman, said his greatest selling point is that he’s different from the career politicians now in the race. “I’m not running for a paycheck,” Wilson said, adding that he plans to use his own money to finance his campaign. “The truth is I’m running to help all the people of this city who still do need a paycheck to be able to make a better living.” A resident of Chicago since 1965, Wilson went from picking cotton during the Jim Crow era, making 20 cents an hour, to being one of the first black owners of a McDonald’s restaurant. He took a struggling location and turned it around within a year, earning top accolades including the Outstanding Store Award and Top Sales Performer. The restaurant’s performance led to Wilson owning several around Chicago.)

DAILY NATION
— How to keep your career moving forward – JAMES KAHONGEH (DIERSEN: What hindered your career from moving forward? For me, for a career in the private sector, it was my being draft bait until I was 22 years old in 1971 and Oldsmobile withdrawing a job offer in 1971 that I had accepted because it had just agreed to stop hiring Whites to settle an EEOC complaint. For me, for a career in the federal government, it was my avoiding the draft, my being a Republican, my complaining about political affiliation discrimination, my complaining about reverse discrimination, my complaining about age discrimination, and my becoming in 1988 an active member in a class action lawsuit that charged the federal government with reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation. For me, for careers in both the private sector and the federal government, it was my not having a degree from an Ivy League university, my not earning an MBA until I was 27, my not passing the CPA examination until I was 30, my not earning master’s degree in accounting until I was 31, my not passing the Certified Internal Auditor examination until I was 32, and my not becoming a licensed CPA until I was 32. For me, for careers in both the private sector and the federal government, because since the 1960s employers have been under tremendous pressure to hire, retain, and promote minorities and females and because they have always been under tremendous pressure to hire veterans, it was my being a White male non-veteran.)
