— 45 years ago: Richard Nixon’s ‘Saturday Night Massacre’ (DIERSEN: What were you doing 45 years ago? I was 25 years old. I worked for IRS in both its Joliet office and in its Chicago office at 63rd and Halsted as a GS-11 Revenue Officer (currently $67,638/year). I had worked for IRS since June of 1971. I lived in a townhome in University Park that I had bought new a year earlier. I owned a 1972 Corvette that I had bought new 2 years earlier and a 1962 Chevy BelAir. I took one graduate business course at a time at Loyola. My mother and brother lived in Crete.)

CHICAGO SUN-TIMES
— Warren ancestry brings attention to how tribes decide membership – AP (DIERSEN: How bad are your demographics? One of my worst demographics is that I am 100% German national origin. In my defense, I stress that my grandfather on my father’s side fought the Germans in WWI, that my uncles on my mother’s side fought the Germans in WWII, and my father would have fought the Germans in WWII if he had not been 4-F. According to http://dna.ancestry.com, my ancestry is 33% Europe West, 28% Scandinavia, 24% Great Britain, 11% Ireland, 2% Europe East, 1% Finland/Northwest Russia, and 1% Italy/Greece. What if I had pretended to be Swedish? My critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes demonize, denigrate, and condemn people of German national origin. I should write a book about those of the aforesaid who are of German national origin themselves, but who demonize, denigrate, and condemn people of German national origin to curry favor with those who are anti-German American.)

CHICAGO TRIBUNE
— FRONT PAGE WITH COLOR PICTURE: Campaign signs are everywhere. But do they work? – Kate Thayer (DIERSEN: What has your Republican Precinct Committeeman/Captain done to encourage the Republican voters in your precinct to display signs for the Republican candidates on the November 6, 2018 ballot in your precinct? In August, I hand-delivered a letter (https://gopillinois.com/documents/) to all the homes in my precinct that had at least one registered Republican voter that asked them to consider displaying yard signs for the Republican candidates on the November 6, 2018 ballot in our precinct. The letter included a listing of all the candidates and the office that they are running for. I hand-delivered the letter a second time in September to the Republican homes on the busier streets in my precinct – Roosevelt Road, Warrenville Road, and Elm Street. Since September 4, 2018 my two Roskam 4X4s and my two “Vote Republican” 4X4s have been displayed on the second floor balcony of Ron Dell’s building at the southeast corner of Roosevelt and Warrenville in my precinct. Three 4X3 Roskam signs are being displayed on Warrenville south of Roosevelt, one at Park and Wheaton by Whittier Grade School, one at Elm and Wheaton by Edison Middle School, and one at Warrenville and Arbor.)

http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/local/politics/ct-met-casten-business-background-20180927-story.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Republicans, though, have attacked Casten’s business career in campaign ads, zeroing in on a 2015 lawsuit filed by an investor in Recycled Energy Development, which converted emissions from power plants into energy. Casten was the company’s president and CEO. The suit leveled allegations of mismanagement against Casten and the company’s leadership, including “baseless accounting manipulations,” “inflated salaries,” “improperly inflated bonuses” and “irresponsible spending,” according to court documents. Casten and his family eventually settled with the investor’s management firm and sold the company. Letters sent to investors in RED in the lead-up to the sale that were obtained by the Chicago Tribune stated that while preferred interest holders in RED would recoup their investment plus interest, common interest investors would not.)

My Democrat GAO superiors forced me to retire in 1997 when I was 49 years old, gave me unfair performance expectations and appraisals, always ranked me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance purposes, did not promote me beyond GS-13, got rid of my mentor in 1987, kept me off audits of IRS for all but 3 of the almost 18 years that I worked for GAO, and forced me to take a $19,203 (26%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980. In 1988, when I was 40 years old, I became an active member in a class action lawsuit that charged my Democrat GAO superiors with reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Anonymous attack letters sent to Woodstock residents with Democratic political signage on their lawns has pushed a pair of Republican leaders in McHenry County to speak against hate rhetoric in the community. “I condemn the coward(s) who wrote these letters, and ask anyone with any bit of concern for the direction in which our public conversation has gone to do the same,” state Rep. Steve Reick, R-Woodstock, said in a statement. “This transcends party, and silence is not an option.” The typed letters, signed by “The Phantom” and “The Wizard,” arrived in the mail last week for Woodstock Democrats Sarah Parisi and Lou Ness. The letters included no return address and attacked the residents for the signs planted in their yards supporting local Democrats.)

https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2018/10/18/u-n-40-percent-of-u-s-births-occur-outside-of-marriage/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: A new report from the U.N. Population Fund (UNFPA) says 40 percent of all births in the United States occur outside of marriage, an increase from 10 percent in 1970. The data show births outside marriage in the European Union (EU) are up even greater. “The data show such births in the U.S. and EU are predominantly to unmarried couples living together rather than to single mothers,” Bloomberg reports. Michael Hermann, UNFPA’s senior adviser on economics and demography, told Bloomberg the EU likely has even more out-of-wedlock births than the U.S. because its member countries provide greater amounts of welfare and public health funding in their socialized medicine programs. Unwed parents are also provided with tax incentives, Hermann said. Kelly Jones, director for the Center on the Economics of Reproductive Health at the Institute for Women’s Policy Research, reportedly said the data show cultural and religious norms about women and marriage have changed, and women are starting families later in life. In the U.S., the average age a woman has her first child is now 27, according to the data, up from 22 in 1970. “Women are claiming their ground professionally,” Jones said. “Delaying motherhood is a rational decision when you consider the impact it can have on your career, and that’s contributing to this trend.” The marriage rate has also declined in the U.S., according to the U.S. Census Bureau, as the number of cohabitating adults has risen. In addition, the U.S. fertility rate plummeted last year to a record low. John Santelli, professor at Columbia’s Mailman School of Public Health, told Bloomberg the traditional culture of the West “has been reversed.” “Cohabiting partners are having children before getting married,” he said. “That’s a long-term trend across developing nations.” Hermann said the trend in the cultural shift will continue. “We can’t go back to ’50s,” he said. UNFPA is the largest international provider of sexual and reproductive health services – which include abortion. The U.N. agency has been linked to the support of population control programs such as China’s coercive abortion “one-child policy.” Soon after his inauguration in 2017, President Donald Trump signed an executive order that reinstated and updated the “Mexico City Policy,” thereby ending UNFPA’s U.S. funding because of its support and funding of abortion.)

GAO wasted the careers of and got rid of its employees who were Republican, White, male, and/or non-veteran who GAO had not promoted to 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.)
https://www.kiplinger.com/article/retirement/T012-C032-S014-can-the-office-gray-gracefully.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Remember the good old days when your career goal was to be employed by one company and stay there until your glorious retirement? In fact, over 40% of Baby Boomers stayed with their job for more than 20 years, and 18% stayed at least 39 years, according to a NORC Center for Public Affairs Research survey. Pensions and stability were clearly driving forces. You could then look forward to your retirement party, which would include a toast to your long service, a gold watch and a pension that, along with Social Security, would guarantee you a financially secure life.)

https://www.cpajournal.com/2018/09/21/reflections-on-my-66-years-in-public-accounting/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The concept of “up-or-out”—either get promoted in a reasonable time or find another job—did not exist until around 1965, when the large firms started to adopt the policy. Eight years after starting at Touche and after many rapid promotions, I was made a partner at the age of 31. I did not think I was too young to be a partner; others did. Today, 40 years after I left the firm, I am amazed how often someone introducing me says, “He was a partner of Deloitte,” to establish my credentials.)

— BEYOND OUTRAGEOUS: Democrats Underwood, Casten outraise GOP rivals Roskam, Hultgren last quarter – Lynn Sweet (DIERSEN: To those who blast me for not giving money to Republican candidates, in my defense, I stress that I offer all Republican candidates GOPUSA ILLINOIS email subscriptions free of charge and without any advertising. GOPUSA ILLINOIS email subscriptions are worth at least $1,000 a year. I spend thousands of dollars each year for newspaper subscriptions, website expenses, and internet expenses. GOPUSA ILLINOIS emails have gone out each and every morning since 2004 and each and every evening since 2015. Those emails have included links to more than 315,000 articles and information on many upcoming events. It takes me about an hour for each 6 links. That means that since 2004, I have spent about 52,500 hours of what is left of my life putting GOPUSA ILLINOIS emails together and sending them out free of charge and without any advertising. The main reason why I have a) less money to give Republican candidates, b) more time to use GOPUSA ILLINOIS emails to help elect those candidates, and c) more motivation to help elect those candidates is the success that my Democrat superiors in the Republican can)

— To end gun violence in Chicago, should we focus on quick fixes or root causes? Yes. The debate often is whether it’s more important to focus on immediate solutions or to take a longer view and address its root causes. A new survey shows that this is a false choice. – NINA VINIK (DIERSEN: As everyone knows, the biggest cause of gun violence in Chicago is the breakdown of the African-American family. Democrats do everything that they can to destroy the traditional family.)

FED SMITH
— How is the Annual COLA Different from an Annual Pay Raise? – Ian Smith (DIERSEN: I should write a book about those who have objected the most to a) the Post Office hiring me in 1966 and letting me work there for almost 3 years, b) IRS hiring me in 1971 and letting me work there for almost 9 years, c) IRS promoting me in 1972, 1973, and 1974, d) GAO hiring me in 1980 and letting me work there for almost 18 years, e) GAO promoting me in 1986, f) my getting COLAs, g) my getting step increases, and h) my getting pay raises.)
https://www.fedsmith.com/2018/10/15/annual-cola-different-annual-pay-raise/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Every year around this time, we receive comments and questions from our readers about the cost of living adjustment (COLA) and the pay raise. Each is determined around the same time of the year and both take effect in the following year, assuming that there is a COLA and/or pay raise. The comments we see indicate that some federal employees and retirees do not understand the difference between the two. This is understandable; the federal pay and retirement systems are governed by a complex process with many different factors that can lead to endless variations depending on a person’s situation. . .The purpose of this article is to explain the differences in the COLA and the annual pay raise in an effort to clear up any misconceptions or confusion. The COLA The 2019 COLA was just announced. This applies to federal retirees and Social Security recipients, but not to current federal employees. In 2019, it will be 2.8%. The process for determining the COLA is automatic. You will either get one or not based solely on a formula that is put in place by law and determined based on the cost of living as measured by the Consumer Price Index for Urban Wage Earners and Clerical Workers (CPI-W). The amount of the COLA has nothing to do with whether a Republican or a Democrat majority is in office, whether or not it might get vetoed, or out of the spite or benevolence reflected by the latest pet projects among politicians in Congress. If Congress decides to change the law governing how a COLA is calculated, then maybe it will become subject to politics, but as of right now, it’s not.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: 1. Eliminate electronic distractions Distractions can increase your workload and stress levels. The constant ding of e-mail and text notifications and Internet temptations can easily disrupt your focus and concentration. According to a study by the University of California, Irvine, it can take up to 23 minutes before you’re able to refocus on the work you were doing before you were interrupted. To start, set up temporary barriers to help keep you focused. Some web tools that can help are Freedom, a website blocker for your computer and phone, and Inbox Pause, which stops new e-mails from coming into your inbox for a time. While the prospect of quieting electronic noise like this may seem daunting at first, it can help maximize your work day and minimize the amount of overtime needed.)

— Conservative mega-donor Richard Uihlein and Gov. Bruce Rauner parted ways bitterly after Rauner signed the HB40 abortion legislation supported by pro-choice advocates. Uihlein went on to bankroll Republican state Rep. Jeanne Ives’ primary campaign to the tune of $2.5 million. When she lost, Uihlein seemed to step back from political races. He gave only $1.5 million to various candidates across the state during Q2. That changed in Q3. He ramped up his support, giving $3.5 million to Dan Proft’s conservative Liberty Principles PAC, which is backing numerous GOP candidates in statehouse races. Uihlein also gave $150,000 to Bill Brady’s state Senate campaign in the 44th District (he’s running unopposed); and $300,000 to Barrett Davie, who’s running against Dem incumbent Julie Morrison for the 29th state Senate District seat. – Shia Kapos

WALL STREET JOURNAL
— An Asian-American Dissident at Harvard Of course I’m grateful to have been admitted despite my background. But why shouldn’t I be critical? – Kelley Babphavong (DIERSEN: The Democrats who run the federal government use Affirmative Action, Diversity, and Inclusion to not hire and to get rid of those who are Republican, White, male, and/or non-veteran who the Democrats who run the federal government do not promote to 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. GAO hired me in 1980 because it could not find a qualified Democrat, minority, female, younger person, or veteran who would take the job. IRS hired me in 1971 because it could not find a qualified Democrat, minority, female, or veteran who would take the job. The Post Office hired me in 1966 because it could not find a qualified Democrat, minority, female, or veteran who would take the job.)
https://www.wsj.com/articles/an-asian-american-dissident-at-harvard-1539546451
(FROM THE ARTICLE: It’s not easy to voice my opinion about Harvard’s admissions policies on campus. For all the talk about “diversity,” many fellow students won’t tolerate my views. I often get comments such as, “How can you be against affirmative action? That’s racist,” and “You should be grateful to Harvard. Why are you critical of them?” . . . On campus, I’m often labeled as ignorant and bigoted for opposing affirmative action. I’m one of the few students who openly criticize Harvard. Even among friends and fellow Asian-American students, this is a polarizing issue that has fallen on partisan lines. Yet real alternatives to race-based affirmative action exist. Race-blind admissions processes that prioritize socioeconomic status, taking into account how applicants have dealt with life’s challenges, would do a far better job of creating genuine diversity. Asian-Americans know they are being unfairly discriminated against under a defense of diversity. Let’s hope the courts recognize it too.)

http://www.chicagotribune.com/business/ct-biz-religious-health-care-cost-sharing-1014-story.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The Barazza family belongs to a health care sharing ministry, a religious nonprofit in which members pay for each other’s health care needs. Compared with traditional health insurance premiums, ministries’ monthly member costs are often much lower. But unlike traditional insurance, members must often commit to religious principles. The ministries generally won’t pay for services that don’t align with those principles, such as abortion and substance abuse treatment, and they often limit coverage of pre-existing conditions and prescriptions.)

POLITICO ILLINOIS
— DIERSEN HEADLINE: An anti-Trump says “Survival rests on SHUNNING TRUMP.” Democrats and Democrat plants, Libertarians and Libertarian plants, Greens and Green plants, and RINOs have always advised Republicans to shun conservatives. They certainly have advised Republicans to shun me. I should write a book about those who have focused on getting Roskam to shun me. They include past and/or present a) Milton Township Republican Central Committee leaders and members, b) DuPage County Republican Central Committee leaders, members, and employees, c) Illinois Republican Party leaders, members, and employees, d) Illinois Center Right Coalition leaders and members, e) TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois leaders and members, f) Wheaton Chamber of Commerce leaders, members, and employees g) Illinois Center Right Coalition leaders and members, h) activists, candidates, elected officials, party leaders, major donors, and political consultants, i) those who focus on destroying people like me and destroying organizations like TAPROOT that they cannot manipulate/dominate, and j) those who I have sued.

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Vice President Mike Pence arrives in southern Illinois today to campaign for Rep. Rodney Davis, the incumbent Republican from the central Illinois to Metro East areas where President Trump still has some clout. GOP Congressman Peter Roskam is listed as one of the honorary co-hosts of today’s luncheon fundraiser, along with Congressmen Mike Bost, Randy Hultgren, Adam Kinzinger, Darin LaHood and John Shimkus. But don’t expect Roskam to get too cozy with the White House in the run-up to Election Day — Trump remains unpopular in Roskam’s suburban Chicago-based district. In fact, the president is a big reason Roskam’s seat is suddenly one of the most endangered GOP seats in the nation. How endangered? Enough that party strategists are suggesting he might be abandoned as a lost cause if his campaign doesn’t “recover quickly.” For now though, the NRCC is out with a new attack ad aimed at his opponent, Democrat Sean Casten. And Roskam’s camp says the NRCC is pouring $1.5 million into its race. The veteran congressman will need it. Casten has $4.6 million reserved for ads. And a poll commissioned by Casten two weeks ago showed him ahead 49 percent to Roskam’s 44 percent.)

— Illinois CPA Society Seeks Minority Candidates for Internship Preparation Program – Illinois CPA Society (DIERSEN: Did you get any internships while you were in college? I did not. I was draft bait. I just barely made it into the upper 20% of my high school class. My ACT was only 24. I delivered mail for the Park Forest Post Office during the summers of 1967, 1968, and 1969 while I attended UIC and NIU. In retrospect, with benefit of hindsight, I should have majored in accounting at UIC and NIU. Nevertheless, I passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979 and I became a licensed CPA in 1981. I have been an Illinois CPA Society member since 1979.)
https://www.cpapracticeadvisor.com/news/12433223/illinois-cpa-society-seeks-minority-candidates-for-internship-preparation-program
(FROM THE ANNOUNCEMENT: The Illinois CPA Society is seeking minority college students who are sophomores, juniors, or seniors interested in accounting to apply for the Mary T. Washington Wylie Internship Preparation Program. This highly competitive and all-expenses paid program will be held January 3-5, 2019. This program prepares up to 25 racially/ethnically diverse students for entry-level positions with access to practical training, resources, and potential future employers. Highlights from the agenda include resume advice and interview coaching from recruiters and volunteer experts. Additionally, all participants receive a $500 scholarship, business cards, a professional headshot, and a LinkedIn profile. At the end of the program, participating employers conduct onsite interviews with the students for a variety of opportunities, including Abbott Laboratories, Crowe LLP, Deloitte LLP, Ernst & Young LLP, Grant Thornton LLP, KPMG LLP, PwC LLP, and Sikich LLP. “When our scholars end up receiving internships and even full-time job offers, it’s highly rewarding to know that we’ve helped brighten their futures,” said Kari Natale, Director, CPA Endowment Fund of Illinois. “Not only do students leave motivated to succeed, but we see them become more confident and better prepared than they ever imagined.” This program is funded by donations to the CPA Endowment Fund of Illinois’ Mary T. Washington Wylie Opportunity Fund, which honors Mrs. Washington Wylie’s legacy by offering opportunities that promote diversity and strengthen the accounting profession.)

http://www.chicagotribune.com/suburbs/daily-southtown/opinion/ct-sta-slowik-highest-paid-superintendent-st-1011-story.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: A system that rewards public servants with excessive compensation should rile south suburban homeowners struggling to pay high property taxes and other bills. Paraday’s base salary this year is $309,306, but that’s only part of the story. The cost of health insurance, an annuity, pension contributions, a car allowance and other expenses drove Paraday’s total compensation for the year to $407,145 — making him the highest-paid superintendent in Illinois. Paraday oversees 1,130 students in three schools, which were delayed from opening in August due to mold in the junior high. Yet, Paraday makes more than the CEO of Chicago Public Schools, who oversees 371,382 students in 644 schools. Open the Books, a Burr Ridge-based watchdog group, discovered that on top of his other compensation, Paraday is set to receive a “golden handshake” of $762,615 for unused paid days off. “Unused, earned sick leave, unused vacation days and unused personal business days shall be allowed to (accumulate), without limit,” Paraday’s contract states. “The superintendent, at his discretion, may submit for payment, at the current per diem, any unused sick, personal or vacation day(s).” Paraday, 56, who has been superintendent since 2005, accumulated 567 days at a rate of $1,345 per day, Open the Books said, based on information it obtained from the district through the Freedom of Information Act. “The bloated Illinois education bureaucracy rewards those who know how to play the pay-and-pension lottery,” Adam Andrzejewski, Open the Books founder and CEO said in a statement. “It’s time the dollars start following the children rather than the bureaucracy.”)

— All but one member of the state’s Democratic congressional delegation has signed a letter encouraging Gov.

Under the new plan, taxpayers will be able deduct state individual income, sales and property taxes up to $10,000. The deduction is currently unlimited. All Illinois Dems but Rep. Dan Lipinski signed the letter saying the provision will have “serious consequences for Illinoisans.” – Shia Kapos (DIERSEN: Roskam should increase the $10,000 SALT cap to $20,000 for married filing jointly.)

Despite having endless millions to spend on his race, he was always going to have a tough path to reelection in a Democratic state. It was the entrance of a third-party conservative candidate that appeared to seal his fate by making Rauner a governor without a natural constituency. Democrat J.B. Pritzker, another billionaire, looks like he’ll cruise to victory.)

CHICAGO TRIBUNE
— In debate with J.B. Pritzker, Gov. Bruce Rauner says illegal immigration contributes to Chicago gun violence – Rick Pearson, Mike Riopell (DIERSEN: Those who want Rauner to lose want Rauner to talk like Pritzker does about illegal immigration. Pritzker says illegals “are good for the economy of the state of Illinois” and “that what we need to do is protect the immigrants that are here in our state. We have immigrants here who are not protected, under attack by President Trump. He (Rauner) stands with President Trump on this. I do not.”)
http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/local/politics/ct-met-illinois-governors-race-debate-rauner-pritzker-20181009-story.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Gov. Bruce Rauner and challenger J.B. Pritzker clashed over immigration and Chicago violence Tuesday, with the Republican chief executive alleging that immigrants living illegally in the state are a factor in the city’s crime problem while the Democrat said they contribute to Illinois’ economy. . .Rauner, who has been trailing Pritzker by double digits in independently conducted polls, indicated the need to continue to heal a core GOP constituency, social conservatives, with his latest remarks on immigration. Social conservatives have been upset with Rauner’s signing of laws that expanded immigration, abortion and transgender rights. Rauner sought to make clear that he signed legislation preventing law enforcement from stopping someone solely on his or her immigration status only because it was backed by law enforcement. “Illegal immigration takes jobs away from Americans. It holds down wages, hurts union workers, farmworkers, factory workers, hurts wages and raises unemployment,” Rauner said. “One of the reasons we have such high unemployment in the city of Chicago and so much crime is the massive number of illegal immigrants here take jobs away from American citizens and Chicago citizens,” he contended, adding that Pritzker wants to make Illinois a “sanctuary state.”)
— Scalise to help Roskam raise money in Illinois’ 6th
http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/local/politics/ct-met-morning-spin-rauner-pritzker-sterigenics-ad-20181008-story.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: U.S. Rep. Peter Roskam is set to get a fundraising boost from a Southern congressman who defeated him in a bid to move up House Republican leadership. U.S. Rep. Steve Scalise of Louisiana will be in Naperville on Wednesday, Oct. 17, at a reception for Roskam, according to the invitation. A ticket goes for $50, and a “private roundtable” goes for $1,000. Four years ago, Scalise bested Roskam in the race for House majority whip, a post that opened up in the leadership shuffle following Eric Cantor’s primary loss to Dave Brat in Virginia. At the time, Roskam was the No. 4 Republican in the House, but his unsuccessful attempt to move up left him out of GOP leadership. Last year, Scalise was shot by a Belleville, Ill., man during practice for the annual congressional baseball game. He has since made his return to Congress, where he still serves as whip under House Speaker Paul Ryan. Roskam, of Wheaton, is locked in a tough re-election battle with Democratic businessman Sean Casten of Downers Grove, who raised $2.6 million in the third quarter, according to his campaign. Roskam’s campaign said he raised about $1.3 million.)

— ‘Sanctuary cities’ don’t care if restaurants exploit undocumented workers – Neil Gaffney, Lake View (DIERSEN: Have you ever been a restaurant worker? I washed dishes part-time for the minimum wage in the basement of the S.S. Kresges in Chicago Heights 1964-1966. That job enabled me to buy a new 1966 Pontiac Tempest Sprint in May of 1966. If there had been as many illegals around back then as there are now, I doubt that I would have been offered that job. I cleaned golf shoes, chipped slag, and pumped gasoline during the summer of 1966. I saved the money that I earned for UIC college expenses. If there had been as many illegals around back then as there are now, I doubt that I would have been offered those jobs.)
https://chicago.suntimes.com/opinion/undocumented-immigrants-restaurant-industry-labor-rights-letters/
(FROM THE LETTER: As I read the article “Chinatown job agencies, Asian restaurants ‘exploit’ Latinos, say workers, suit” (Oct. 7), two questions came to mind regarding Chicago and other sanctuary cities like San Francisco. On the one hand, is sanctuary first and foremost a program designed to allow the undocumented to build a life with dignity? Or, on the other hand, is it a program more designed to allow employers access to cheap unskilled labor with no labor rights, no job protections, zero benefits, and no right to complain since you risk being reported to Immigration and Customs Enforcement? I think the latter, actually. Why hire a low-skilled American citizen who will come with a multitude of labor rights and job protections, when you can hire an undocumented low-skilled worker really cheap, without any of that baggage? An employer’s dream, and the sanctuary cities are fine with it. Some sanctuary.)

I paid property taxes a) on my new town home in University Park 1972-1984, b) on my studio condo in downtown Chicago 1974-1976, and c) on my one bedroom condo in downtown Chicago 1974-1976. My wife and I paid property taxes on 1017 East Harrison in Wheaton 1978-1984. My wife and I have paid property taxes on 915 Cove Court in Wheaton since 1984. My wife and I have never sent any children to any public school. My wife has never attended a school. I attended Crete-Monee High School 1962-1966. What do you say to my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes who want my wife and I to pay more property taxes, more income taxes, and more other taxes? They stress that I avoided the draft and my wife and I gave up trying to have children, we did not adopt, and we did not become foster parents. They hint/imply/argue/shout that the federal government grossly overpaid me and that my federal retirement benefits are much too generous.)

— Rauner blames Chicago crime on “massive number of illegal immigrants” who take away jobs (DIERSEN: Have you ever been a restaurant worker? I washed dishes part-time for the minimum wage in the basement of the S.S. Kresges in Chicago Heights 1964-1966. That job enabled me to buy a new 1966 Pontiac Tempest Sprint in May of 1966. If there had been as many illegals around back then as there are now, I doubt that I would have been offered that job. I cleaned golf shoes, chipped slag, and pumped gasoline during the summer of 1966. I saved the money that I earned for UIC college expenses. If there had been as many illegals around back then as there are now, I doubt that I would have been offered those jobs.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: The battle over Brett Kavanaugh’s Supreme Court confirmation may have ended, but it’s ignited a group of Chicago-area pro-choice activists. They’re launching WomenAreTheBlueWave.com to turn red legislative seats blue. “We marched. We voted. Now we need to volunteer,” the web site states. The effort was initiated by Illinois Democratic Women and Personal PAC. “Women are going to make the difference in November here and throughout the nation and we want to help harness that energy given that more is at stake now than ever before for women and families,” says Jennifer Lee, co-President of IL Democratic Women. How it works: Women and their allies are invited to sign up at WomenAreTheBlueWave.com. They will then be connected with nearby local campaigns that need volunteer help the most to flip key state districts for candidates with pro-women and pro-choice agendas.)
