— Illinois is hurting. Red states and blue states are hurting — and desperate for a real federal rescue  The federal government’s response to the coronavirus pandemic should look beyond handing out trillion-dollar Band-Aids. It should roll out in the spirit of a modern day New Deal, with an eye toward addressing historic inequities – Editorial (DIERSEN: Ever-increasingly, Democrats use coronavirus to get governments a) to promote socialism, communism, and dictatorship and b) to get rid of individuals, organizations, companies, governments, and countries that are Trump supporters, Protestant, conservative, patriotic, Republican, American, White, male, older, non-poor, gun owners, German American, draft avoiders, and those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time.)

(FROM THE EDITORIAL: A deal to make a better America Beyond that, government should seize on this moment to address historic structural inequities — such as wildly uneven access to health care, a living wage or a financially secure retirement — that have been exposed and exacerbated by the coronavirus’ spread. We’re not delusional. We know a modern New Deal — a version of President Franklin Delano Roosevelt’s massive public works undertaking to pull America out of the Great Depression — will never happen under a President Trump. Nor will it be embraced by the Republican-majority Senate. But this broader vision should be an aspirational guide to our nation’s long-term response to the pandemic, embraced for the moment at least by the Democratic House. We’re calling for a return to that spirit. The coronavirus is real and deadly. It also is a metaphor. In the same way the virus spreads without distinction or favor, most of our nation’s biggest social problems hurt us all. We do our nation no favors allowing poor children to be poorly educated, allowing mentally ill people to live on the streets, forcing low-income workers to hold two or three jobs. It all comes back to haunt us in the form of more crime, bigger prisons and a nagging conscience during church services on Easter Sunday morning.)

https://www.whig.com/20200407/adams-county-parties-adjust-caucuses-in-response-to-pandemic
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Adams County political organizations are forming alternative plans to move forward with the county caucuses set for April 14 in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. The Adams Committee Democratic Central Committee announced it will postpone its caucus because of Illinois stay-at-home order, which is in line with the Democratic National Convention delaying its convention to August. The Democratic Central Committee will elect a new chairman after Chairman Keith Niewohner announced last year that he wished to retire as chairman but will remain a committeeman. Niewohner said it’s important that the committees are able to meet in-person to elect a new chairman, but that now is the time to focus “on the health, safety and well-being of ourselves, our families, the community and all of our momentum.” A date for a future caucus was not set. Dave Bockhold, chairman of the Adams County Republican Central Committee, said the party’s executive committee is seeking to host the caucus by mail. Letters have been sent to all precinct committeemen to get approval for the move.)

You also said do it for your abuela, do it for your big mama and papa. There are some people online that are already offended by that language and the idea that you’re saying behaviors might be leading to these high death rates.”)

ANSWER: While I worked for GAO 1980-1997, the last 11 years of which at GS-13 Step 1-10 levels, currently $101,176-$131,532/year, I increasingly worked as a referencer, that is, as a fact checker.

I worked for IRS 1971-1980, the last 5 1/2 years of which at the GS-12 Step 1-5 levels, currently $85,084-$96,431/year. My other fact checking qualifications include my becoming a Forensic Accountant in 1997, Certified Fraud Examiner in 1990, licensed CPA in 1981, Certified Internal Auditor in 1981, and CPA in 1979.)
