In 2004, they had succeeded in ending my American Association of Political Consultants Midwest Chapter board membership, in ending my Milton Township Republican Central Committee (MTRCC) webmaster service, and in defeating my bid to serve as a MTRCC Treasurer.

In 2011, they succeeded in ending my Wheaton Chamber of Commerce Government Affairs Committee membership. In 2012, they succeeded in ending my TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois chairmanship.

WALL STREET JOURNAL
— FBI’s Most Wanted: More Applicants for Special Agents Tight labor market has forced the bureau to double down on recruitment efforts; CEOs, physicists and school therapists are encouraged to apply – Aruna Viswanatha and Byron Tau (DIERSEN: 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. Democrats run the federal government. Since the 1960s, to hire, to retain, and to promote young Democrat minorities and young females, the federal government has constantly lowered its hiring, retention, and promotion requirements and made them more subjective. For example, passing the CPA examination is no longer a requirement for many positions.)
https://www.wsj.com/articles/fbis-most-wanted-more-applicants-for-special-agents-11551023975

(FROM THE ARTICLE: The FBI has thus far been able to maintain its hiring levels despite the slump, agency officials said. But there is also a growing recognition that the traditional enticement of FBI employment isn’t as strong as it once was. “The way that government recruits people is they give you more interesting work, particularly more interesting work at a more youthful point in your career,” said Michael German, a former FBI agent who is now a fellow at the Brennan Center for Justice. But as competition for applicants has increased, more employers are offering qualified candidates attractive work opportunities—often at much higher pay levels than starting FBI salaries. Adding to the FBI’s recruitment challenge is a consistently high demand for new applicants in part because of the bureau’s mandatory retirements—agents are required to retire at 57, and can collect pensions after 20 years of service. The challenges have prompted the FBI to overhaul its entire recruiting process over the past six months, Mr. Sursi said. Recent changes include reducing applicants’ previous work requirements from three years to two; keeping in touch with applicants throughout the process to address concerns; reaching out to those who had started but never finished applications; and allowing applicants to continue an application process even if they don’t immediately meet fitness requirements—even offering training guidance to help applicants hit required strength and speed goals.)

https://www.fedsmith.com/2019/02/24/pay-agent-pay-disparity-gap-lacks-credibility/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Pay-for-Performance The Pay Agent also highlighted a common theme: Pay-for-Performance. This observation is also in the introduction of the Pay Agent Report: “[W]e believe in the need for fundamental reforms of the white-collar Federal pay system. We believe it is imperative to develop performance-sensitive compensation systems that will contribute to a Government that is more citizen-centered, results-oriented, and market-based. We need to empower Federal agencies to better manage, develop, and reward employees in order to better serve the American people.”)

I have not. One could argue that the longer that you have lived, the more places that you have lived, the more municipalities that you have worked in, the more employers that you have worked for, the more organizations that you have been active in, the more college degrees that you have earned, the more schools that you have attended, and the more attention that you pay to current government and political news and commentary, the less that you live have lived in a bubble. I have lived in Illinois for more than 70 years. I have lived in Wheaton for almost 41 years. I lived in Chicago full-time for 2 years and part-time for 2 years before that. I lived in University Park part-time for 2 years and full-time for 2 years before that. I lived in Crete for 24 years before that. I worked in Chicago, Harvey, Joliet, Chicago Heights, and Park Forest. I worked for GAO for almost 18 years, for IRS for almost 9 years, for Firestone Stores for 2 1/2 years, for the Post Office for almost 3 years, and for S.S. Kresges for 1 1/2 years. I have been active in the Milton Township Republican Central Committee for more than 19 years. I was active in TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois, Wheaton Chamber of Commerce Government Affairs Committee, Illinois Center Right Coalition, American Association of Political Consultants Midwest Chapter, and Association of Government Accountants Chicago Chapter. I have earned degrees from IIT, DePaul, Loyola, and NIU. I attended UIC. I graduated from Crete-Monee High School and from Hope Lutheran Grade School in Park Forest. I attended Trinity Lutheran Grade School in Crete. I have been the GOPUSA Illinois Editor for 19 years. I spend 10+ hours each and every day researching the internet and newspapers for articles of interest to Illinois Republicans.)
https://www.theatlantic.com/politics/archive/2019/02/americans-remain-deeply-ambivalent-about-diversity/583123/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Most Americans do not live in a totalizing bubble. They regularly encounter people of different races, ideologies, and religions. For the most part, they view these interactions as positive, or at least neutral. Yet according to a new study by the Public Religion Research Institute (PRRI) and The Atlantic, a significant minority of Americans do not live this way. They seldom or never meet people of another race. They dislike interacting with people who don’t share their political beliefs. And when they imagine the life they want for their children, they prize sameness, not difference. Education and geography seemed to make a big difference in how people think about these issues, and in some cases, so did age.)
