— ‘You cannot overfund this’: Milton Township officials debate mental health spending – Katlyn Smith
https://www.dailyherald.com/news/20211116/you-cannot-overfund-this-milton-township-officials-debate-mental-health-spending
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Township trustees and Supervisor John Monino tentatively agreed to raise property taxes by roughly $800,000 for the 708 mental health board, named for a state House resolution and created by a referendum vote last spring. A final decision on the tax levy is expected on Dec. 14. . .But township trustees were wary of allocating more money for the first grant cycle, though Monino said the board’s request wasn’t “out of line.” “I think that $1 million is a bit much right now,” said Trustee Jeff Castle, adding that he wanted to see what the board will do next year with the township funding. Trustees gave preliminary approval to a tax increase that would cost the owner of a home with an assessed value of $128,444 — the average in Milton Township — an estimated $17.60. The township covers all or parts of Wheaton, Glen Ellyn, Carol Stream, Lombard, Glendale Heights and Winfield. “It strikes the right balance between fiscal responsibility and providing for the needs of the community,” Trustee Dan Milinko said of the lower amount.)

— FEBRUARY 27, 2017 FLASHBACK: 10 Times You Should Take a Pay Cut – SUZANNE LUCAS (COMMENT: GAO audits IRS. When I transferred from IRS to GAO in 1980 when I was 31 years old, my Democrat GAO superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates did not want me to transfer, but failing that, they wanted me to transfer as a GS-4 Step 1 (currently $34,956/year) intern, that is, to suffer a $62,439/year (64%) pay cut in today’s dollars. They painted what GAO Analysts do as being a unique “trade or occupation.” They would not have done that if I had been a Democrat, minority, female, or veteran. They viciously demonized, denigrated, and condemned the fact a) that I had worked for IRS as a Revenue Officer for almost 9 years, the last 5 1/2 years of which at the GS-12 Step 1-5 levels, currently $85,935-$97,395/year, b) that much of what IRS Revenue Officers do is similar to what GAO Analysts do, c) that I had passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, d) that I had earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976, and e) that I had almost completed the requirements for a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul. They were furious a) that I suffered a pay cut of only $20,361/year (21%) in today’s dollars to transfer and b) that I transferred with me almost 12 years of federal seniority, 30 days of unused vacation days, and 130 unused sick days.)

They hinted/implied/argued/shouted that if my wife and I had children, adopted, or became foster parents a) my wife would NOT have been able to keep her job with the U.S. League of Savings Institutions and she would NOT have earned a bachelor’s degree in finance from DePaul in 1986 and b) I would NOT have passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, NOT gotten hired by GAO in 1980, NOT earned a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980, NOT passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt in 1981, NOT became a licensed CPA in 1981, etc. The adverse actions that they took against me included a) forcing me to retire in 1997 when I was 49 years old, b) giving me unfair job assignments, performance expectations, and appraisals, c) always ranking me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance purposes, d) not promoting me beyond GS-13, e) getting rid of my mentor in 1987, e) keeping me off audits of IRS for all but 3 of the almost 18 years that I worked for GAO, and f) forced me to take a $20,361 (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980.

He worked in the office of a nasty chemical plant in Chicago Heights, almost always worked second jobs to pay the family’s bills, and died suddenly of heart failure in 1969 when he was 47 and I was 21. Because he had brittle type 1 diabetes from age 14, his doctors discouraged him from going to college because that would cause him too much stress. He frequently said his not having a college degree harmed his career opportunities. My mother never attended high school.)

EDITOR AND PUBLISHER
— Exploiting the local news desert. Are political and foreign interests profiting from the locals’ loss? – Henry Scott (COMMENT: I have been the GOPUSA Illinois Editor since 2000; NOT the GOPUSA DuPage County Editor, NOT the GOPUSA Milton Township Editor, and NOT the GOPUSA Wheaton Editor. Ever-increasingly, government and political news and commentary of interest to Illinois, DuPage County, Milton Township, and Wheaton voters comes from anti-religious, anti-conservative, and/or anti-Republican sources. This year, those anti-religious, anti-conservative, and anti-Republican sources did NOT report that that Democrats, Libertarians, Greens, Independents, and RINOs had stopped DuPage Republicans from helping sponsor Wheaton’s Independence Day parade and fireworks. Last year, they did NOT report that in June, it was Democrats, Libertarians, Greens, Independents, and RINOs who had great success in promoting LGBTQ in downtown Wheaton.)
https://www.editorandpublisher.com/stories/exploiting-the-local-news-desert,207894
(FROM THE ARTICLE: In recent years at least 1,400 local news publications, most of them digital, have begun to fill America’s large and growing local news desert. But are they really “greening” that desert by filling it with legitimate local news? Or are they just trying to exploit it financially and politically?)

WIKIPEDIA & BUZZFEED
— DINK (COMMENT: My Democrat GAO superiors and supervisors painted themselves as being champions of parents. I should write a book about them and how they used my wife and I giving up trying to have children, our not adopting, and our not becoming foster parents to take adverse actions against me. They stressed the 4-page article about us in Money Magazine’s February 1978 issue in which we stated our intent to have children and they hinted/implied/argued/shouted that my wife and I had lied. They painted my wife and I as being disgusting selfish DINKs (double income, no kids). They painted themselves as being GOD-LIKE because they had children, because they had adopted, and/or because they were foster parents. They hinted/implied/argued/shouted that if my wife and I had children, adopted, or became foster parents a) my wife would NOT have been able to keep her job with the U.S. League of Savings Institutions and she would NOT have earned a bachelor’s degree in finance from DePaul in 1986 and b) I would NOT have passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, NOT gotten hired by GAO in 1980, NOT earned a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980, NOT passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt in 1981, NOT became a licensed CPA in 1981, etc. The adverse actions that they took against me included a) forcing me to retire in 1997 when I was 49 years old, b) giving me unfair job assignments, performance expectations, and appraisals, c) always ranking me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance purposes, d) not promoting me beyond GS-13, e) getting rid of my mentor in 1987, e) keeping me off audits of IRS for all but 3 of the almost 18 years that I worked for GAO, and f) forced me to take a $20,361 (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980. They would not have taken the aforesaid adverse actions against me if I had been a Democrat, minority, female, younger, and/or veteran.)

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 $20,361 (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980.

— Demographics of the United States (COMMENT: How bad are your demographics? My demographics are very bad. The more bad demographics that you have, the more reluctant that people are to defend/support you. My critics/opponents stress that virtually no one defends/supports me. If my demographics were not so very bad, my critics/opponents might not have been able to have their operatives and dupes a) stop me from raising funds from DuPage Republicans so that DuPage Republicans could help sponsor Wheaton’s 2021 Independence Day parade and fireworks, b) end my TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois chairmanship in 2012, c) end my Wheaton Chamber of Commerce Government Affairs Committee membership in 2011, d) end my Milton Township Republican Organization (MTRO) webmaster service in 2010 and 2004, e) end my Illinois Center Right Coalition (ICRC) Steering Committee membership in 2007, f) attempt to get ICRC to censure me for my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters in 2006, g) viciously end my bid to serve as MTRO Treasurer in 2004, h) end my American Association of Political Consultants Midwest Chapter board membership in 2004, i) end my GAO employment in 1997, j) etc. According to my critics/opponents, people do not defend/support me not because of my demographics, but because I and an EXTREMELY BAD PERSON. My critics/opponents give extreme preference to those who are minority, female, younger, LGBTQ, veteran, moderate, non-Missouri Synod Lutheran, non-German American, those ancestors have not been in America for a long time, those who glorify and praise them, those who pander to them, those who serve as their operatives or dupes, those who cover up their wrong doing, those who give them money, etc. I should write a book about my critics/opponents.)

Candidates include Republican leaders of Wheaton, Wheaton Park District, Wheaton Chamber of Commerce, Milton Township, DuPage County, Milton Township Republican Organization, and DuPage County Republican Central Committee. I should write a book about the aforesaid who have done the most since 2005 a) to discourage me from raising funds from Republicans so that Republicans could help sponsor Wheaton’s Independence Day parades and fireworks, including haranguing me in the parade staging area, and b) to discourage Republicans from contributing funds for the aforesaid.)
