— Dead People Can’t Collect Fat Pensions – Rich Miller (DIERSEN:
Ever-increasingly, everyone who is in line to get a pension or is getting a
pension is demonized, denigrated, and condemned. I am not happy at all that for
the rest of my life, I will be ever-increasingly demonized, denigrated, and
condemned for getting a Civil Service Retirement System pension.) https://www.rcreader.com/commentary/dead-people-cant-collect-pensions (FROM THE ARTICLE: The
writer threatened mass assassinations for pretty much everyone who receives a
state government pension, including survivors and heirs. To avoid this fate,
the author demanded in the form letter that the pension actuarial tables be
changed and the state’s constitution be amended to remove the pension
protection clause before instituting a graduated income tax. The writer also
demanded unspecified “cap$ and clawback$ for outrageous$ pension
payout$” and local government consolidation. He or she also demanded the
end of pension double-dipping and “playing salary games at career’s end to
max out your take.”)

AMERICAN PROSPECT
— Pelosi Must Not Run Congress Like Trump Ran His Businesses Congress doesn’t
have the resources right now to take on Trump, and Democrats aren’t fighting to
acquire them. – DANIEL SCHUMAN (FROM THE ARTICLE: Congress is a shadow of
itself. What this means in terms of personnel, for example, is House committee
staff fell by one-third from 1994 to 2016, from 1,947 people to 1,298.
Government Accountability Office staff fell by one-third, from 4,572 to 2,989.) https://prospect.org/article/pelosi-must-not-run-congress-trump-ran-his-businesses (FROM THE ARTICLE: A
quarter-century ago, Newt Gingrich set out to destroy Congress as a force for
progress, slashing the House’s funding by 14 percent and eviscerating its
support agencies, like the Office of Technology Assessment, which drafted
reports on emerging scientific and technological issues. In the last decade,
House Republicans literally decimated funding for the House. Overall funding
for the legislative branch is down by $370 million in constant dollars over the
last decade alone, and funding for committees over that time has dropped by 22
percent—from $432 million to $329 million in constant dollars. Congress is a
shadow of itself. What this means in terms of personnel, for example, is House
committee staff fell by one-third from 1994 to 2016, from 1,947 people to
1,298. Government Accountability Office staff fell by one-third, from 4,572 to
2,989; and the Congressional Research Service fell by one-quarter, from 835 to
609. This is colloquially known as the lobotomization of Congress. The average
expertise of and resources available to the rump of remaining staff have
dropped precipitously, and few in power have any real experience governing. As
if you couldn’t tell. To sum up, Congress is in no shape to take on Trump.)

— How much money do you need to be wealthy in America? – Suzanne Woolley
(DIERSEN: I should write a book about those who since 1966, when I was 17 years
old, have demonized me, denigrated me, and condemned me as being wealthy. They
stressed that in today’s dollars, my part-time Post Office salary was
$17.23/hour in 1969, that my IRS salary was $93,592/year in 1980, and that my
GAO salary was $127,654/year in 1997. They stressed that at the end of 1977, in
today’s dollars, my net worth was $203,600. They stressed the new cars that I
bought in 1966, 1967, 1968, 1971, etc. and the collector cars that I bought in
1989 and 1994. They stressed the real estate that I bought in 1972, 1974, and
1976; the home that my wife and I bought in 1978; and the home that we had built
in 1984. They stressed the money that I spent to earn a bachelor’s degree in
1970; master’s degrees in 1976, 1980, and 1997; and professional certifications
in 1979 and 1981. They stressed the money that my wife and I saved for our
retirement.) https://www.dailyherald.com/business/20190518/how-much-money-do-you-need-to-be-wealthy-in-america (FROM THE ARTICLE:
Merely having a net worth of $1 million, it seems, doesn’t mean you’re wealthy.
In Charles Schwab’s annual Modern Wealth Survey, the amount people said it took
to be considered rich averaged out to $2.3 million. That, the company said, is
“more than 20 times the actual median net worth of U.S. households.”
It’s also a very slight drop from the $2.4 million average in the two previous
iterations of the survey. The older one gets, the higher the bar goes,
predictably. Among baby boomers (roughly age 55 to 73), the average net worth
you need to be considered wealthy is $2.6 million, 35% higher than what
millennials envision as the admission price to the plutocracy. For someone to
be deemed merely financially comfortable, the required net worth shrinks
significantly. The average amount was $1.1 million, and only Generation Z
(about age 9 to age 22, though Schwab’s sample was 18 to 22) cited a number
below $1 million ($909,600, to be exact.) The Schwab survey, which took a
national sample of 1,000 Americans between the ages of 21 and 75, also revealed
that the majority of Americans really crave real estate. More than 50% of
respondents across generations said that if they got a $1 million windfall,
they’d spend it, and the most popular purchase would be a place to live — particularly
among millennials (roughly age 22 to 37).)

growing number of federal appeals courts are recognizing that nefarious
employers are using subjective criteria to justify discriminatory hiring
decisions. This has been an epic problem for decades in age discrimination
litigation, where it is not unusual for workers with objectively superior
qualifications to be passed over in favor of candidates who are deemed a better
“cultural fit.” This month, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit
joined four other federal circuits to rule that an employer may not defend a
discrimination charge with “vague” and “slippery” reasons because of the
“intolerable risk that a nefarious employer will use [them] as a cover for
discrimination.” The court said employers must articulate “specific reasons”
for employment decisions, such as “the candidate’s ‘seniority, length of
service in the same position, personal characteristics, general education,
technical training, experience in comparable work or any combination’ of such
criteria.”)

tollway board picked by Gov. J.B. Pritzker, who supported the ouster of the
previous slate of directors after a series of Daily Herald reports about
tollway spending and patronage hiring at the agency. Alvarez “came in on
May 1 and hit the ground running,” Chairman Will Evans said at Thursday’s
meeting. “I am committed to investing in our team and building on its
strengths,” Alvarez said. He likened the tollway’s situation to the
housing authority, which had “five CEOs in five years.” Former
tollway Executive Director Greg Bedalov, who was paid $186,000, left in
February 2018 and Gorman stayed for 13 months.)

RINOs want immigrants because RINOs want cheap labor.) https://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2019/05/pelosis_disgraceful_weaseling_on_meritbased_immigration.html (FROM THE ARTICLE:
Common sense and public opinion both strongly favor prioritizing immigrants who
bring education and skills to the country, so that they can support themselves
and provide more tax payments than they consume in the form of welfare and
other need-based services. Few questions of public policy receive support in
the eighty percent range, yet merit-based immigration actually does receive
nearly 80% in reliable polling. . .The entire point of immigration policy is to
benefit the citizens of the United States. Forcing citizens to pay for the
welfare and government services consumed by poor families entering with
children (who will need expensive bilingual schooling), and who will generate
few taxes but consume large tax revenues if they bring low education and skill
credentials, enacts a penalty on American citizens.)

screenshots to back up their complaints. Facebook, YouTube, Instagram and
Twitter are all cited as possible targets.)
