CHICAGO SUN-TIMES — City employees still don’t get regular performance evaluations, watchdog says. Departing Inspector General Joe Ferguson warned last fall the city’s failure to conduct regular evaluations for nearly half of its 33,000 employees left personnel decisions “vulnerable to appearances and suspicions of favoritism.” – Fran Spielman (DIERSEN: In Diersen v. GAO, I entered into the court record all the many performance evaluations that I received while I worked for GAO 1980-1997. Not one of them justified any of the many adverse actions that my Democrat GAO superiors took against me.) https://chicago.suntimes.com/city-hall/2021/7/13/22576008/city-employees-performance-evaluations-inspector-general-audit-corrective-measures-not-implemented
FOX ST. LOUIS — SIU paper details cannabis economics, long-term health effects in Illinois – Elizabeth Barmeier (DIERSEN: I should write a book about my pot pushing critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes who have worked the hardest against me because I oppose pot.) https://fox2now.com/news/illinois/siu-paper-details-cannabis-economics-long-term-health-effects-in-illinois/ (FROM THE ARTICLE: Cannabis can have negative consequences on those who use it continuously, according to a Southern Illinois University paper. The negative effects include periodontal disease, socioeconomic problems, and educational attainment, among others. “The Effects of Legalization of Recreational Cannabis In Illinois” also dives into the use rates among youth, women, and adults in the United States; the effectives of legalization of recreational cannabis among adolescents, college students, and pregnant women; and the decrease in the perception of cannabis harmfulness. As states across the country are considering legalizing recreational marijuana, the Cannabis Regulation and Tax Act went into effect Jan. 1, 2020, in Illinois. It allows adults, 21 and over, to legally purchase recreational marijuana. According to the study, Illinois had collected $100 million in tax revenue from cannabis sales in Oct. 2020.

So why are you making them do it, you racist boomer? 5) They refuse to eat on Taco Tuesday due to cultural appropriation: Literally every white ally of social justice knows that enjoying any aspect of another culture that doesn’t belong to your own is racist. Segregate those cultures, Mom and Dad! 6) They ask all their minority classmates to bully them: Are they white?

POLITICO ILLINOIS — LOOK WHO’s TALKING FOR THE GOP Illinois GOP Chairman Don Tracy sent a letter to Republican leaders Monday expressing frustration that MSNBC, CNN and local media turn to Republican consultants who “trash” other Republicans. “When they are listed as current or former party officials, it falsely gives the impression that these people are speaking for all Republicans in Illinois or the Chicago area,” according to Tracy’s email, obtained by Playbook. He doesn’t name names but it’s not hard to figure out that former state GOP Chairman Pat Brady doesn’t mince words about far-right Republicans when he’s interviewed by reporters. Tracy is the first downstate chairman of the Illinois GOP in more than 30 years. He lives in Springfield, three hours from Chicago, making it difficult to accommodate live broadcasts. So he’s now assigning two surrogate Republicans in northern Illinois, Kathleen Murphy and Ammie Kessem, to represent the party during TV interviews when he can’t make it. The issue is the surrogates tapped align better with Republicans south of I-80 than those in the Chicago area. Murphy is the former spokeswoman for former GOP gubernatorial candidate Jeanne Ives and a defender of Ives’ controversial TV ad attacking Republican Gov. Bruce Rauner’s record by featuring actors playing out sensitive cultural issues. It was uniformly criticized, including by the state GOP, for being racist, sexist and homophobic. Kessem, the 41st Ward GOP committeewoman, is a Chicago Police sergeant and avowed Donald Trump supporter. In an interview with Playbook, Tracy said that Murphy and Kessem “aren’t going out there to represent themselves. They are there to represent the Illinois GOP.” They will both work closely with Illinois GOP communication director Joe Hackler. “I don’t represent any wing of the party. I represent the entire Republican Party. And they will do the same,” Tracy said. Though Tracy’s TV accessibility to Chicago may be a challenge, the real problem for the GOP is handling the tension between moderate Republicans (generally in the northern part of the state) and those who align with Trumpism downstate. Party leaders kept quiet, for example, when asked to address controversial Republican Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene coming to Illinois to stump for GOP Rep. Mary Miller. Along with backing up Tracy on TV, the GOP is working to expand its roster of voices to include women and minorities who can speak for the party. Tracy’s letter has already generated interest. Stepping up are GOP State Central Committee members Jay Reyes and Nimish Jani, Republican National Hispanic Assembly Chair Jesus Solorio, Palatine Township Republican committeeman Aaron Del Mar, and Diante Johnson, president of the Black Conservative Federation. – SHIA KAPOS (DIERSEN: I have never hinted, implied, argued, or shouted that I or my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters have in any way ever spoken for the Illinois Republican Party (IRP), DuPage County Republican Central Committee (DCRCC), or Milton Township Republican Organization (MTRO).

I have always encouraged the IRP, DCRCC, MTRO, TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois, and Illinois Center Right Coalition to help elect candidates who can and will defend and advance the Republican Party platform including its traditional marriage/family, right to life, immigration, illegal drugs, Second Amendment, and equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) planks.) https://www.politico.com/newsletters/illinois-playbook/2021/07/13/look-whos-talking-for-the-gop-nevermind-on-term-limits-buttigieg-alert-bribes-tax-breaks-493551 — Winnebago County GOP Chair Eli Nicolosi to challenge state Sen.

CAPITOL FAX — SEPTEMBER 11, 2004 FLASHBACK: Wheaton: Alan Keyes’ Patriot Day speech warmly received – Dave Diersen (DIERSEN: Robert Sandberg attended this event.) https://capitalfax.blogspot.com/2008/09/gopusa-illinois-daily-clips-september_11.html (FROM THE ARTICLE: Over 500 came to Wheaton’s beautiful Memorial Park on Saturday, September 11, 2004, to meet Alan Keyes and to hear his remarks concerning Patriot Day and his campaign. Alan was warmly received by the crowd which gave him several standing ovations during his 20-minute speech. State Senators Kirk Dillard and Peter Roskam served as Master of Ceremonies. Senator Dillard introduced the elected officials and candidates who were on the band shell stage with Alan while he gave his speech — State Senator Raymond Soden, State Representative Randy Hultgren, State Representative Candidate Roger Jenisch, DuPage County Board Commissioner Debra Olson, DuPage Coroner candidate Peter Siekmann, Illinois GOP State Central Committeeman Ron Smith, Milton Township Assessor Jim Gumm, and Milton Township Trustee Don Sender. The band shell stage is the same one that Bob Dole gave a speech from immediately after he walked in Wheaton’s 1996 Independence Day Parade — CNN broadcast that speech live. Senator Dillard recognized event attendees including DuPage County Auditor Jim Rasins, DuPage County Regional Superintendent of Schools Darlene Ruscitti, DuPage Regional School Board Trustee Tim Whelan, and District 89 School Board Trustee Howard Levine. He recognized the event’s sponsors — State Farm Insurance Agent Mark Prutzman, Oberweis Dairy, John Cox, All Star Printing, himself, Randy Hultgren, Debra Olson, Pete Siekmann, Tim Whelan, Don Sender, and Diersen Consulting. Senator Roskam gave some remarks concerning September 11 and he introduced Alan. Apparently, even though the Daily Herald, the Wheaton Leader, and the Wheaton Sun had been asked to cover the event, the only reporters who covered the event were Rich Samuels with WTTW’s Chicago Tonight and Dave Diersen with GOPUSA.com. Samuels and Diersen made VHS recordings of Alan’s speech. Event photographers included Matt Ferguson and Don Sender. The free event provided attendees with a great opportunity to enjoy great food, to meet their neighbors, to meet their elected officials, and to meet candidates who will appear on November 2 ballots in DuPage County. On July 5 last year, 200 attended a similar event in Wheaton’s Prairie Path Park, including Jack Ryan, Jim Oberweis, Andy McKenna, Chirinjeev Kathuria, and John Cox. Attendees at this year’s event enjoyed hot dogs and Polish sausages personally handed out by Debbie Malek from her cart. Debbie normally locates her cart at Cross and Wesley Streets at the southeast corner of Wheaton’s Adam’s Park, across the street from Wheaton’s Public Library. All the hot dogs and sausages were paid for by State Farm Insurance Agent Mark Prutzman. In its September 12, 2004 edition, the Daily Herald ran a major front page story on Debbie that included six pictures and quotes from Ron Smith. Attendees also enjoyed Oberweis ice cream and flavored milk personally handed out by Jim Oberweis and Sandy Rios from an Oberweis truck. Attendees enjoyed Jays potato chips provided by John Cox, salads and desserts that attendees brought to the picnic or were purchased with cash contributions, and soft drinks and ice paid for by the sponsors. Event costs included $180 for a $1 million insurance policy required for City of Wheaton and Wheaton Park District permits. The many people who helped make the event successful include Karen Diersen, Mark Prutzman, Bill Hogan, Mark Stern, and Gary Muehlfelt. Attendees included Rod McCulloch, Peter LaBarbera, Frank Penn, Richard Johns, Robert Gordon, George Kocan, Robert Sandberg, Leonard Sanchez, Lori Carlson, Richard Russo, Steve Carlson, Keith Carlson, Jason Hinkle, Mark Klage, Patrick Ryan, and Dr. Bob Krzyzewski. Alan will again be speaking in DuPage County on Friday, October 8, at 6:30 PM, at the Milton Township Republican Central Committee’s Viva Oktoberfest fundraiser at the Carlisle Banquet Hall in Lombard. Tickets are $45 or $400/table of ten.) — SEPTEMBER 11, 2005 FLASHBACK: Nalepa gives keynote address at Wheaton’s 2005 Patriot Day picnic; Birkett, Brady, Fortner, Furstenau, Hultgren, Kathuria, Oberweis, Poe, Rauschenberger, Roskam, Rutherford, Wallace, Wegman, Zaruba, and many others attend – Dave Diersen https://capitalfax.blogspot.com/2008/09/gopusa-illinois-daily-clips-september_11.html (FROM THE ARTICLE: Wheaton’s 2005 Patriot Day picnic in Memorial Park honored the individuals who lost their lives as a result of terrorist attacks against America and showed support for America, for its war on terrorism, and for its military and law enforcement personnel. I had the honor of introducing the event’s master of ceremonies — nationally-known conservative activist, Fox News Channel contributor, and Culture Campaign President Sandy Rios. Wheaton Second Baptist Church Pastor Andre Allen gave the invocation. Korean War veteran Ron Smith led the pledge of allegiance. Harry Newman sang the National Anthem. Rios read President Bush’s 2005 Patriot Day proclamation, introduced the elected officials and candidates, and thanked the event sponsors. DuPage County Board Member Bob Heap spoke about DuPage’s implementation of 9/11 recommendations. 9/11 Families for a Secure America founder Peter Gadiel gave an outstanding speech about lessons learned from September 11, 2001. West Point graduate and USO board member Jim Nalepa gave an outstanding Patriot Day address. Newman concluded the program by singing “We still have heroes.” Attendees enjoyed delicious Debbie Malek hot dogs and Polish sausages courtesy of State Farm Insurance Agent Mark Prutzman, delicious pork sandwiches courtesy of State Representative Ray Poe, delicious Dr. Bob Rauschenbergers courtesy of State Senator Steve Rauschenberger, delicious Jays Potato Chips courtesy of John Cox, delicious ice cream and flavored milk courtesy of Jim Oberweis, and delicious soft drinks and bottled water courtesy of Charinijeev Kathuria. All Star Printing provided event flyers and DuPage County Board Chairman Bob Schillerstrom and Kane County Recorder Sandy Wegman covered the $385 cost of event insurance. The picnic provided attendees with a great opportunity to meet and speak with veterans, law enforcement officials, fire department officials, elected officials, and candidates. Many elected officials attended including State Senators Bill Brady, Carol Pankau, Rauschenberger, Peter Roskam, and Dan Rutherford; State Representatives Randy Hultgren, Roger Jenisch, and Poe; County officials Joe Birkett, Fred Bucholz, Heap, Gwen Henry, Gary King, Debra Olson, Jim Rasins, Darlene Ruscitti, Brien Sheahan, Pete Siekmann, Penny Wegman, Sandy Wegman, Tim Whelan, Jon Zahm, and John Zaruba; Township officials Sal Falbo, Moon Kahn, Gary Muehlfelt, and Leonard Sanchez; Municipal officials Alan Bolds, Jim Carr, Liz Corry, Mike Fortner, Dick Furstenau, and Howard Levine. Many candidates attended including congressional candidate Roskam; gubernatorial candidates Birkett, Brady, Oberweis, and Rauschenberger; Lieutenant Governor candidates Kathuria, Poe, Eric Wallace, and Wegman; Secretary of State candidate Rutherford; State Senate candidates Furstenau and Hultgren; and State Representative candidate Fortner. Former DuPage County Recorder Rick Carney and Mrs. Illinois Kaili Harding and her husband who graduated from West Point and served in both Afghanistan and Iraq also attended. By tomorrow, when I know how many of each type of food and beverage was served, I’ll have a better estimate of the number of the hundreds of people who attended. The many attendees included David Carlin, Dennis Driscoll, Bob Grahm, Joyce Hundhausen, Mark Klage, Jim Leahy, Bruce Mitroff, Mark Stern, Rick Veenstra, and Winston Waller. DuPage County is the second most populous county in Illinois and Wheaton is its county seat. Why didn’t the Chicago Tribune, Chicago Sun-Times, Daily Herald, Wheaton Leader, or the Wheaton Sun report on Wheaton’s Patriot Day event? Generally, the liberal media does not report on an event unless it can use that reporting to harm conservatives, that is, harm people who support the Republican platform. The vast majority of the attendees at Wheaton’s Patriot Day picnic were conservative Republicans — why didn’t more Democrats and RINOs attend? A number of Democrats told me that they would not attend because they are Democrats and because their attendance might be misinterpreted as support for President Bush. Attendance would have been even greater if fewer Democrats didn’t argue that Republicans have highjacked Patriot Day to promote the Patriot Act and President Bush’s policies in Iraq; if Blagojevich, Durbin, Hynes, Madigan, Obama, Quinn, or Topinka had helped sponsor event or confirmed that they would attend; if more Democrats and more RINOs shared the attitude toward patriotism and toward Patriot Day that Republicans have; if the Daily Herald had promoted the event like it promoted Naperville’s event; if there were not so many other competing events; and if the temperature/humidity had been lower.)

The Goodwood-green colored convertible still sits in Biden’s garage and even appeared alongside his presidential campaign. “I love this car. Nothing but incredible memories,” Biden said standing next to the vintage vehicle in a campaign video from August 2020. “Every time I get in I think of my dad and Beau [his late son].” The 1967 variant was the last in the C2 Corvette range. “The Secret Service won’t let me drive it. I’m not allowed to drive anything. It’s the one thing I hate about this job. I’m serious,” Biden said. With up to 350 horsepower, a V8 engine and the ability to reach speeds of 60 mph in just 4.7 seconds, it’s easy to see why Biden treasures the 1967 classic. Appearing on an episode of Jay Leno’s Garage in October of 2016, Biden impressed viewers by taking the comedian for a spin and performing a burnout in his ’67 Corvette Stingray. “I’ve always loved to drive… I like speed,” he told Leno while adding that his sons Beau and Hunter had the car’s engine rebuilt as a Christmas gift. According to Biden at the time, the meeting marked only the third time the Secret Service allowed him to drive his beloved car during his eight-year stint as vice president.)
POLITICO ILLINOIS — KINZINGER’s BIG HAUL – Shia Kapos https://www.politico.com/newsletters/illinois-playbook/2021/07/12/kinzingers-big-haul-latino-caucus-map-moves-cook-county-strike-scoop-493537 (FROM THE ARTICLE: Congressman Adam Kinzinger has raised a whopping $1.3 million in the second quarter of the year, according to a source close to his campaign. Broken down, that’s $800,000 for his re-election campaign and $500,000 for his leadership PAC. In the past six months, Kinzinger has raised $3.6 million, nearly all from individuals, and more than $700,000 from within Illinois. “This is not the kind of money that gets raised in a rural district. It looks like something more attuned to someone running statewide,” former Republican Congressman Bob Dold told Playbook. Dold’s comment hints at what might happen if Kinzinger’s 16th Congressional District is squeezed out of the remap: a possible run for U.S. Senate or even governor. Early census numbers show Illinois is losing one seat, but until final figures are released and districts are redrawn, we won’t know whose seat will be out. For now, Kinzinger is focusing on getting re-elected to Congress. And his second-quarter fundraising shows he hasn’t been hurt by speaking out against Donald Trump’s rhetoric or the former president’s supporters who attacked the U.S. Capitol. Kinzinger has become publicly isolated within the GOP for calling on the party to reject conspiracy theories pushed by Trump. Still, while Kinzinger has spoken out against Trump’s conspiracies, freshman Republican Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene has benefited from embracing them. In the first quarter, she amassed $3.4 million.)

I’m that Wayne Allyn Root. I’m the nationally syndicated conservative radio talk show host. And former conservative television host on Newsmax TV. And bestselling conservative author of 14 books — including “Trump Rules,” “The Ultimate Obama Survival Guide,” “Angry White Male” and “The Murder of the Middle Class.” I’m the last guy you’d ever imagine coming out in support of reparations for black Americans. But it’s true. I’m going to be the first high-profile conservative to support reparations. Black Americans deserve reparations. Let’s be honest. Look at their cities in ruins. Black inner cities in America look like Hiroshima and Nagasaki after the atomic bombs hit. Have you been to any of them lately? Of course not. What sane person would take a chance by driving through the Brownsville neighborhood in Brooklyn, or Crown Heights, or Bedford Stuyvesant, or Harlem or the infamous South Bronx? Or how about Chicago’s black South Side? How about virtually all-black inner cities in Detroit; Baltimore; East St Louis; Newark, New Jersey; Oakland, California; Liberty City in Miami; Cleveland; New Orleans, Memphis, Tennessee; Atlanta and more. The list goes on and on. These places are synonymous with murder, violent gangs and violent crime. Black cities and neighborhoods are a war zone. A black-on-black genocide. An American tragedy. Not to mention the drug needles, poop, pee, condoms and garbage that litter their mean and hopeless streets. Black lives do matter. So, yes, they do deserve reparations. But who is to blame? It’s sure not white Americans. Most of us have had nothing to do with the decline of black America. The vast majority of white Americans have never done a bad thing to a black person in our lives. We don’t run their cities. We don’t go near their cities. We literally have nothing to do with black America. And none of us were alive for slavery or the civil war, or Jim Crow. My grandparents came to America in the 1920s. They lived in New York. They experienced their own prejudice and discrimination. My relatives had nothing to do with slavery, racism or any civil rights violations. So, yes blacks are owed reparations. But who’s to blame? There’s only one common denominator: DEMOCRATS. The Democratic Party and Democratic politicians are to blame. It’s the Democratic Party and Democratic politicians who should pay the trillions of dollars. It’s the policies of the Democratic Party that have led to poverty; misery; violent crime through the roof; retail theft on a level never imagined; homelessness; hopelessness; rampant drug dealing and addiction; no fathers in black homes; burned-out buildings; abandoned stores; lack of supermarkets; and streets filled with poop, pee, garbage, condoms and drug needles.) — Kamala Harris Slammed for ‘Kinkos’ Comment in Discussing Rural Americans and Voter ID – Rebecca Downs https://townhall.com/tipsheet/rebeccadowns/2021/07/10/kamala-harris-slammed-for-kinkos-comment-in-opposing-voter-id-n2592336

TEXAS MONTHLY — Meet the Four Republicans Who Want to Replace Allen West as Texas GOP Chair. The next party leader could continue to wage war on errant Republican elected officials or oversee a détente. – Jonathan Tilove (DIERSEN: One could compare and contrast the Texas Republican Party with the Illinois Republican Party.) https://www.texasmonthly.com/news-politics/texas-gop-chair-candidates/ (FROM THE ARTICLE: David Covey, one of four candidates to lead the Texas Republican party, has positioned himself as a moderate on perhaps the most pressing issue in the race. On the question of working with Republican elected officials, he doesn’t want Armageddon so much as a reasonable degree of tactical violence. “I don’t think we need to work hand in hand, but I don’t think we need to nuke them either,” Covey, currently the Orange County chairman and representative of Senate District 3 on the State Republican Executive Committee, said at a June 29 forum in Port Neches. “We have to be able to put pressure on our legislators, like a sniper. We pick our target, we ensure we don’t have collateral damage—even the party itself—and then we pull the trigger to make sure we get our priorities passed.” Martial metaphors aside, the 32-year-old Covey represents, believe it or not, something of the peace candidate to lead the Texas GOP past the testosterone-fueled, QAnon-inflected tenure of Allen West, a retired Army lieutenant colonel and former one-term congressman from Florida. For the past year of his short but chaotic reign as party chair, West mostly trained his unfriendly fire on fellow Republicans, including Governor Greg Abbott, whom he characterized as a tyrant for his pandemic response, and House Speaker Dade Phelan, whom he described as a traitor for seeking some Democratic votes to gain the gavel. On June 4, West surprised many by abruptly announcing that he would be stepping down as chairman effective July 11, midway through his two-year term. A month later, on July 4, West formally declared that he would be challenging Abbott, setting off what is likely to be a brutal primary battle.)

Simon https://www.theepochtimes.com/a-defeat-in-the-courts-for-bidens-racist-equity-policies_3895020.html (FROM THE ARTICLE: If you were an Armenian Christian who fled your home to Glendale, California in 1915 to escape a genocide at the hands of the Ottoman Turks that killed roughly one million of your countrymen and women, how would you feel about paying reparations for black slavery that ended more than fifty years before you arrived? Not so good, I would imagine. The whole concept of so-called reparations in America is mired in such contradictions, tens of millions having migrated to this country from all over the world and continuing to do so well more than a century after slavery ended. Many of these people suffered from onerous, sometimes extremely onerous, even life threatening, conditions of their own. Yet, the Biden administration—under, among other things, the meretricious mask of something called “equity,” as opposed to “equality”—is asking millions of our fellow citizens to pay for an acknowledged evil, slavery, in which they did not remotely participate.) — CPAC Texas: ‘America Uncanceled’ (Day 1) https://www.theepochtimes.com/live-cpac-texas-america-uncanceled-day-1_3894846.html — Arizona Lawmaker Advises People to Put up ‘No Trespassing’ Signs to Deter Door-to-Door Vaccine Checks – ALLAN STEIN https://www.theepochtimes.com/mkt_morningbrief/arizona-lawmaker-advises-people-to-put-up-no-trespassing-signs-to-deter-door-to-door-vaccine-checks_3893470.html

It’s sure not white Americans. Most of us have had nothing to do with the decline of black America. The vast majority of white Americans have never done a bad thing to a black person in our lives. We don’t run their cities. We don’t go near their cities. We literally have nothing to do with black America. And none of us were alive for slavery or the civil war, or Jim Crow. My grandparents came to America in the 1920s. They lived in New York. They experienced their own prejudice and discrimination. My relatives had nothing to do with slavery, racism or any civil rights violations. So, yes blacks are owed reparations. But who’s to blame? There’s only one common denominator: DEMOCRATS. The Democratic Party and Democratic politicians are to blame.)

My critics/opponents attribute my successes in life mainly to my unfairly benefitting from “White privilege” and “male privilege,” but also to my unfairly avoiding the draft, to my unfairly getting married, and to my unfairly benefitting from my German American Missouri Synod Lutheran parents, grandparents, great grandparents, and the rest of my ancestors’ discrimination against minorities and against women.) https://www.wsj.com/articles/the-aristocracy-of-talent-review-getting-ahead-falling-behind-11625695982 — Welcome to the Equity War. Republicans are running on culture, while Democrats press economics. – Daniel Henninger https://www.wsj.com/articles/welcome-to-the-equity-war-11625696029 (FROM THE ARTICLE: President Biden outputs executive orders like a popcorn machine. His latest bucketful goes a long way toward clarifying the politics of our time. On June 25 Mr. Biden issued an order to “advance diversity, equity, inclusion, and accessibility (DEIA) in the federal workforce.” Meaning every nook they can find in American life. A phrase like “diversity, equity, inclusion and accessibility” is what’s known as a political narrative—a brief, repeatable description of political goals whose implicit message is: Who could be against this? It is not an overstatement to say the future of the world will rise and fall on whether these pablum-like narratives can be turned into hard policy. “Save the planet” was one of the most successful. Rising alongside is DEI (“accessibility” is a Bidenized addition). Set aside the D- and I-words. The battle of our time is over the E-word—equity. Unlike diversity and inclusion, both unmeasurable sentiments, equity is an economic concept. It posits that some have more economic wealth, and some have less. The “some” may be individuals or nations. Equity’s goal is to impose policies by fiat intended to close “disparities.” The power of the equity narrative is that it can be applied to anything, insofar as most of life can be divided between more and less. Such as the Covid-19 pandemic. According to multiple recent news stories, the distribution of Covid vaccines has become an equity issue. “After monopolizing initial production,” the Washington Post asserts, “rich nations have made only limited progress toward ensuring an equitable global distribution of vaccines.” It says both the International Monetary Fund and the World Bank are warning of a “two-track global recovery that would widen the economic divide between advanced and developing nations.” “Equity” is wealth redistribution, or soft socialism, repackaged as happy talk. But this is a conversation worth having. Equity talk is an opportunity for clarification about which policies are pie in the sky and which work.)
