— Frustrated with health insurance costs, some turn to religious plans: ‘For us it’s been a godsend’- Lisa Schencker (DIERSEN: Religious organizations should do far more to promote traditional marriage and to discourage activities that harm your health. They should do far more to discourage sexual aggression, to discourage promiscuity, to discourage infidelity, to discourage LGBTQ activity, to discourage abortion, to discourage booze, and to discourage pot. Your body is the temple of the Lord. SEE: 1 Corinthians 6:19-20)
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.)

CPA PRACTICE ADVISOR
— 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.)

My father was the first of his ancestors to earn a high school diploma. My mother never attended high school. I spent my junior and senior years and the summer in between washing dishes for the minimum wage in the basement of the S.S. Kresges in Chicago Heights. I just barely made into the upper 20% of my class. My ACT score was only 24. I was 1-A for draft notwithstanding the fact that my eyesight could not be corrected to 20/20, I had partial red/green color blindness, and I had Osgood-Schlatter disease (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Osgood%E2%80%93Schlatter_disease). I attended UIC 1966-1968.)

— How does a Bay Area Republican survive? Act like a Democrat – Holly Honderich (DIERSEN: Political parties exist to help elect candidates who can and will defend and advance their platform.

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Catharine Baker calls herself pro-choice, pro-environment and pro-gun control. As the only Republican to hold partisan office in the decidedly liberal Bay Area, it may be the only way she can hang on. Since she was first elected in 2014, the East Bay assemblywoman has split with the GOP on issues that define it nationally and has sought to distance herself from the man who now controls the Republican Party, President Trump. Her tenure in Sacramento has been marked by frequent excursions across the aisle to work with Democrats. “That’s one of the strongest signatures of my record: independence from parties and interest groups,” Baker said. “I feel I’m one of the most effective members of the Legislature that way.”)

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.)

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.)

— State GOP gets cash infusion – Rick Pearson
http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/local/politics/ct-met-morning-spin-rauner-pritzker-busy-week-ahead-20181007-story.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The Illinois Republican Party, which has been heavily subsidized by Gov. Rauner, has gotten a cash infusion of more than $850,000 from a variety of sources. The House Republican Organization, the campaign funding arm of House GOP lawmakers and candidates, gave the state GOP $500,000. The HRO has also received significant funding from Rauner. In addition, the Republican State Senate Campaign Committee gave the party $200,000, while Rauner’s hand-picked state Republican chairman, Cook County Commissioner Tim Schneider, added another $80,000. Barrett Davie, a Republican state Senate candidate from Lake Forest who is challenging Democratic state Sen. Julie Morrison of Deerfield, also gave the state GOP $70,000. Davie also has been the beneficiary of more than $300,000 from conservative Republican mega-donor Richard Uihlein of Lake Forest.)

http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/nationworld/ct-columbus-day-columbus-ohio-20181008-story.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: But it became the subject of protests last year over Columbus’ enslavement of native people, with the protest’s organizer supporting renaming the city itself. “Christopher Columbus was an agent of and continues to be a symbol of the genocide of the indigenous peoples of the Americas,” Elissa Washuta, a protester and member of the Cowlitz Indian Tribe, told the Columbus Dispatch in August 2017.)

 

CHICAGO SUN-TIMES
— Democrat’s poll shows Casten ahead of Roskam by 5 points – Tina Sfondeles
https://chicago.suntimes.com/?post_type=cst_article&p=1411456
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Among women voters polled, Casten is up 15 points — 54 percent to 39 percent. For men voters polled, Roskam is up by 7 points — 50 percent to 43 percent, according to the poll. Casten is also performing better with voters age 18 to 39 — polling 58 percent to Roskam’s 25 percent. The race between Roskam, who has held the seat since 2007, and Casten, a political newcomer and a former energy company executive, is under a microscope nationally as Democrats try to regain control of the chamber. Roskam’s campaign said they’re aware the race is close but expressed optimism in the incumbent’s chances. The campaign on Sunday also sought to link Casten to Illinois House Speaker Mike Madigan, echoing TV ads which say “both would make us pay a lot more” in taxes. “We are confident voters will stick with Peter Roskam, who has been an effective leader for Illinois and is rated as one of the most bipartisan members of Congress,” spokeswoman Veronica Vera said.)

— WHY YOU NEED NEW CONSERVATIVE SOCIAL MEDIA & SEARCH Stop being censored by Facebook, Google and Twitter
https://www.wnd.com/2018/10/why-you-need-new-conservative-social-media-search/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Have you been a victim of censorship? If you are a conservative, it is almost certain Facebook, Google, Twitter or another high tech company put some type of restriction on the information you need. Your posts may be blocked or shadowbanned. Perhaps, important news is hidden from you. It is a matter of freedom or tyranny. Many people are asking, what is the solution? USA.Life social network and 1776Free.com search engine are the answer to Facebook, Google and Twitter censoring Christians, conservatives and liberty. These new sites are being built by Steven Andrew, a Silicon Valley technology and Christian leader. He set up a crowdfunding page to launch the sites and people are chipping in to save our freedoms. Already, they have exceeded $200,000. When Andrew saw Facebook block tens of millions of his posts from followers, he decided to use his Internet business and leadership skills to make these pro-America alternatives. How can these new sites save the Internet for you and your loved ones? Here are three important reasons why you need USA.Life and 1776Free.com. 1. Freely Share Life, Liberty and Happiness Andrew found big tech blocks pro-American values. Your God-given rights are being restricted. Important things like God, family values, securing the borders for your safety, gun rights, life, the Constitution and traditional marriage are being attacked by these big tech companies. A report found Google gave 96% liberal news against President Trump. This affects elections. USA.Life and 1776Free.com use a Pro-America Algorithm (TM), so you can always share and find life, liberty and happiness. You can freely talk about American values, without being restricted. This makes you and your loved ones safe, strong and blessed. 2. Privacy News reports reveal Facebook, Google and others track almost all private details of your life. This spying is unAmerican. However, USA.Life and 1776Free.com give you privacy. Only a minimal amount of information is used. If you delete something, it is deleted. There is no selling of your personal data to third parties. 3. Real News Liberal big tech companies updated their algorithms, so conservatives get less traffic, according to reports. They promote fake news outlets, which is a danger to national security. USA.Life and 1776Free.com are different. They give you real news, so you know the truth about what is going on. You and your family gain real knowledge. Learn More Without USA.Life and 1776Free.com, your freedom and privacy could be lost forever. However, the Internet can be saved if 58,000 people give $10, or if 5,800 supporters give $100. New members are joining every day by signing up for a free account. Joining now gives users access to preferred usernames and project updates. Don’t be trapped with anti-American Facebook, Google and Twitter, sign up today. With these new sites, you help save the USA.)

FORBES
— Think Again If You Plan To Work Longer – Teresa Ghilarducci (DIERSEN: How long do you plan to work? I planned to work at least until I would be eligible for regular retirement when I was 55 in 2003. But my Democrat superiors in the federal government succeeded in forcing me to take their early retirement offer when I was 49 in 1997. Consequently, my pension is only $51,864, or only 41% of what my $125,325 salary was in today’s dollars.)
https://www.forbes.com/sites/teresaghilarducci/2018/10/08/think-again-if-you-plan-to-work-past-65/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: When 52% of older workers are pushed out of their jobs, working longer is not their choice. The stark truth is that a significant share of older workers — age 55-64 — are not anywhere near being on track to afford retirement. The median retirement account balance for older workers is only $15,000. Even the highest income workers — those earning over $200,000 per year who are in the top ten percent of the income distribution — do not have enough money to retire and maintain their standard of living. Their median account balance is under a year’s salary at $200,000 and 15% of the highest earners have no retirement plan except Social Security. For nearly 20 years, the advice to older people is to make to make up for inadequate retirement wealth by working longer. Yet, from 2008 to 2014, at least 52% of retirees over 55 left their last job involuntarily as a result of direct job loss (they were laid off or their business closed or changed ownership); they felt they were pushed out so they quit; or their health deteriorated; or they had to leave work to take care of a sick family member.)

In 1977, while I was working for IRS, Money Magazine looked at my federal tax returns and decided a) to paint my education deductions as being improper, b) to harm me financially, and c) to end my IRS career. In its February 1978 issue, Money Magazine published a 4-page article on me in which it painted my education deductions as being improper. In the article, Money Magazine hinted/implied/argued/shouted that the graduate business and accounting courses I deducted were not job-related, did not help me carry out my job duties, were taken by me to get a job in the private sector, and were a distraction. My Democrat IRS superiors were more than happy to use Money Magazine’s article to disallow my education deductions and to end my IRS career. Money Magazine and IRS would not have done the aforesaid if I had been a Democrat, a minority, a female, or a veteran.

FORBES
— DIERSEN HEADLINE: Anti-Trumps demonize, denigrate, and condemn Kavanaugh’s comportment. My critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have always tried to get me to raise my voice, to get angry, and to lose my temper. I should write a book about them.)
https://www.forbes.com/sites/johnbaldoni/2018/10/06/what-justice-kavanaugh-teaches-us-about-comportment/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Partisans on both sides of the issue have made much of the hearings. Those for Kavanaugh’s nomination believe he was railroaded by the left and therefore is entitled to defend himself, even losing his temper. Those against Kavanaugh position him as an arrogant and entitled person of privilege who shows himself without the temperament to be a justice. Anyone wrongly accused has a right to defend himself – loudly and vociferously. But when that person periodically loses his cool and resorts to partisan conspiracy theories, then people become suspicious. In fact, more than 2400 law professors signed a letter attesting to Kavanaugh’s intemperance and unsuitability for the high court. Comportment is essential to leadership. Until recently, our society has always valued politicians who kept their cool, in fact, those who did not were often voted from office, or mocked.)

https://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-election-battleground-special-rep/special-report-the-trump-trap-republicans-duck-president-in-key-house-races-idUSKCN1MF13Y
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Six-term Representative Peter Roskam has a good sense of how voters in Illinois’ 6th Congressional District feel about the president. Despite re-electing the Republican congressman in 2016, they backed Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton over Trump by nearly 7 percentage points. The district typifies the battlegrounds where Republican candidates face anti-Trump headwinds: a fast-growing suburb west of Chicago with a median income near $100,000. Roskam has made no statements of support for Trump on his website or in posts this year to his social media accounts. He acknowledges that associating himself with the president might do more harm than good. Having Trump campaign for him in the district “obviously wouldn’t be helpful,” he said in an interview. Roskam has criticized Trump’s tariffs on imported goods and has decried the administration’s separation of immigrant children from parents. After Trump held a July press conference with Russian President Vladimir Putin and refused to condemn Putin for interference in the 2016 U.S. elections, Roskam called Trump’s performance “an affront to American democracy.” But Roskam notes that he also backs the president on issues important to pro-Trump voters, such as raising military spending and lowering taxes. In an August tweet, Roskam described as “absurd” a statement by his Democratic opponent comparing Trump with al Qaeda founder Osama bin Laden. “This district is discerning,” Roskam said, and voters want a candidate who will represent their interests independent of the president. But Roskam’s reluctance to embrace Trump isn’t enough for some of the anti-Trump Republicans he’s trying to capture. “Peter Roskam has distanced himself from Trump, but he doesn’t stand up to him,” said Bill Wentz, 73, a lifelong Republican and former federal government lawyer. Roskam hasn’t done enough to fight the president on economic policies that Wentz says undermine traditional Republican support for free markets by picking “winners and losers.” He also is uncomfortable with Trump’s failure to fully embrace U.S. intelligence agencies’ finding that Russia interfered in the 2016 U.S. elections. Wentz’s answer: vote for Roskam’s Democratic opponent, Sean Casten. Fostering enthusiasm among disaffected Republicans without alienating Trump loyalists is a tall order, says Christine Matthews, a pollster advising Republican candidates. The president’s core supporters “don’t want to see any distance between you and Trump,” Matthews says, while some college-educated Republicans and independents are “motivated to vote against Trump.” Reuters/Ipsos polling suggests the number of Republicans who are so turned off that they are likely to stay home is relatively small. Among moderate, registered Republicans with college degrees and incomes of $75,000 or more – a group somewhat less supportive of Trump than other Republicans – less than 1 percent say they don’t plan to vote. The bigger threat is the 14 percent in that Republican demographic who, like Wentz in Illinois, say they will back a Democrat or a third-party candidate.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Around 10,000 baby boomers are turning 65 every day, and the same number will continue doing so for years. Some are on solid financial ground after a lifetime of planning and the fortune of well-timed home purchases and stock investments. Most of the rest are unprepared. Fifty-four percent of households with middle incomes—ranging from around $48,000 to $95,000 a year—don’t have enough saved to maintain their quality of living in retirement, according to the Boston College Center for Retirement Research. Some of those who saved were hit by unforeseen health-care costs. Others took on debt for education. Yet more made investment mistakes or lost their savings in the 2008 financial crisis. Those wildly different circumstances are leading to hard-to-resolve social tensions, which are playing out every day at retirement communities across the country.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: He would be, in the words of his prep school’s motto, a man for others. At an age when most young people struggle to figure out their path forward, he knew he would devote his life to public service. Brett Kavanaugh was destined for something big. The people around him knew it, too. Through the years, Kavanaugh, 53, a federal appellate judge since 2006, has been rich in friends, loyal and true. Teachers, parents, classmates, colleagues – they made it their business to buff and defend Kavanaugh’s reputation. They cheered him on as he climbed the ladder of legal success. And they rallied around him when he tripped on the way up. That turned out to be a job that extended over four decades because as bright and kind and wise as friends say Kavanaugh is, he has also left behind a trail of people who say that his reckless behavior raises serious questions about his judgment and veracity. The story of President Donald Trump’s embattled choice for the Supreme Court, who could learn the fate of his troubled nomination Thursday, is a classic Washington tale of a young man who grew up surrounded by people in high places, keenly aware of protecting his image.)

A major reason why my wife and I bought a home in Wheaton in 1978 and we had one built in Wheaton in 1984 was that Wheaton was dry back then.)
