— Despite poll, no vote now on legal pot – GREG HINZ  (DIERSEN: If you promote pot in Illinois, you promote the destruction of Illinois.  If you want to destroy a country, you encourage its citizens to smoke pot.)
http://www.chicagobusiness.com/article/20170327/BLOGS02/170329877/despite-poll-no-vote-now-on-legal-pot
(FROM THE ARTCLE: Steans was reacting to a survey by the Paul Simon Public Policy Institute at Southern Illinois that found a stunning two-thirds of voters saying they support the legalization of pot “if taxed and regulated like alcohol.” . . . Support for full legalization was wide across the state and among political subdivisions. While such backing was strongest among Democrats, young people and Chicagoans, the plan gets support from 52 percent of Republicans surveyed, 54 percent of downstaters and 51 percent of those aged 66 and up, the institute said. Just 31 percent of voters overall indicated they oppose or strongly oppose such an action.)

— Yes, Illinois has a budget problem, but legalizing marijuana won’t fix it – Stephen Petersen, Downers Grove
http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/opinion/letters/ct-yes-illinois-has-a-budget-problem-but-legalizing-marijuana-won-t-fix-it-20170324-story.html
(FROM THE LETTER:  Do state Sen. Heather Steans and state Rep. Kelly Cassidy have no shame? The thought of legalizing marijuana for the purpose of raising revenue from the manufacture and sale of marijuana is yet one more example of stealing from the futures of our children to pay for lawmakers’ pet projects today. I have two children in high school and one in middle school. They are good kids, get good grades, and are active in scouts and the community. I hear stories from them of what some of the other students are up to at Downers Grove North. I read about the heroin epidemic and grieve for the families that have recently lost children. My children tell me they just say no, and I believe them. But I also know what I was up to when I was in high school, and there but by the grace of God go I. I know that Illinois has a budget problem and have been told by Democrats for many years that there is literally nowhere to cut. I have also seen with my own eyes much of the graft in city and state contracting. The Democrats’ positioning is that there are no options but to raise taxes. These lawmakers want to raise taxes through drug use, and I find that despicable. For whatever reason, there has been no grand bargain on expanded gambling for expanded revenue, and that’s got to hurt. Prostitution is still illegal in Illinois, however not rare. My heart goes out to the young ladies and their families whose revenue potentials will be eyed next. Democratic leadership has already spent more money for today than our kids and grandkids could possibly pay back in their lifetimes, so that must make the politicians proud. Their idea of promoting and taxing drug use is a good one to keep money flowing in, but bodes poorly for future generations. By the time the bill comes due these two legislators will be living on their fat, taxpayer-provided pensions, so what do they care? What if there are no public taxpayers left in Illinois to pay it? Steans and Cassidy must think carefully about what they’re doing. And in the meantime, try not to string out the kids for their comfort.)

WSIL TV
— DISGUSTING: Colorado weighs strategy for guarding against pot crackdown – AP  (DIERSEN: If you promote pot, you are NOT a Republican. If you got elected to or appointed to a government or to a political position as a Republican, and you promote pot, you should immediately resign so that you can be replaced with a Republican.  If you promote pot, you are a Democrat, a Libertarian, or a Green.  You are anti-Republican, anti-conservative, anti-religious, and anti-American.)
http://www.wsiltv.com/story/34995922/colorado-weighs-strategy-for-guarding-against-pot-crackdown
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Colorado is considering an unusual strategy to protect its nascent marijuana industry from a potential federal crackdown, even at the expense of hundreds of millions of dollars in tax collections. A bill pending in the Legislature would allow pot growers and retailers to reclassify their recreational pot as medical pot if a change in federal law or enforcement occurs. It’s the boldest attempt yet by a U.S. marijuana state to avoid federal intervention in its weed market. The bill would allow Colorado’s 500 or so licensed recreational pot growers to instantly reclassify their weed. A switch would cost the state more than $100 million a year because Colorado taxes medical pot much more lightly than recreational weed – 2.9 percent versus 17.9 percent. The measure says licensed growers could immediately become medical licensees “based on a business need due to a change in local, state or federal law or enforcement policy.” The change wouldn’t take recreational marijuana off the books, but it wouldn’t entirely safeguard it either. What it could do is help growers protect their inventory in case federal authorities start seizing recreational pot. The provision is getting a lot of attention in the marijuana industry following recent comments from members of President Donald Trump’s administration. White House spokesman Sean Spicer has said there’s a “big difference” between medical and recreational pot. Sponsors of the bill call it a possible exit strategy for the new pot industry. It’s hard to say how many businesses would be affected, or if medical pot would flood the market, because some businesses hold licenses to both grow and sell marijuana in Colorado. The state had about 827,000 marijuana plants growing in the retail system in June, the latest available data. More than half were for the recreational market. “If there is a change in federal law, then I think all of our businesses want to stay in business somehow. They’ve made major investments,” said Sen. Tim Neville, a suburban Denver Republican who sponsored the bill. If federal authorities start seizing recreational pot, Colorado’s recreational marijuana entrepreneurs “need to be able to convert that product into the medical side so they can sell it,” Neville said. His bill passed a committee in the Republican Senate 4-1 last week.)

DAILY WIRE
— At What Age Do Millennials Consider Themselves Adults? The Answer Will Stun You. – AARON BANDLER  (DIERSEN: At what age were you an adult, that is, at what age did you start paying all your own bills?  For me, it was age 21 in 1970, when I started working for Firestone Stores in Chicago Heights.  I paid not only all my own bills, I helped pay my mother’s and brother’s bills. My father had died suddenly in October of 1969 and I had applied for and I eventually got a financial hardship draft deferment.  I was able to buy a new town home in University Park when I was 24 in 1972.)
http://www.dailywire.com/news/14747/what-age-do-millennials-consider-themselves-adults-aaron-bandler
(FROM THE ARTICLE: A new report has found that millennials don’t consider themselves adults until they reach the age of 30. Yes, you read that correctly. According to The Wrap, research compiled by David Poltrack, CBS’ chief research officer and their ratings expert, as well as Nielsen Catalina Solutions, found that millennials consider themselves adults at age 30 because that’s when they typically are completely responsible for themselves – they no longer reside with their parents and pay entirely for their own bills.)

For example, one sign read, “Dear white people, there is no such thing as being ‘colorblind.’ You are perpetuating racism and white supremacy.” Another sign read, “Dear white people, black people can’t be racist. Prejudice, yes, but not racist. Racism describes a system of disadvantage based on race. Black people can’t be racist since we don’t stand to benefit from such a system.” Another sign peddled white stereotypes while insinuating all white people place black people in a box: “Dear white people, are you tired of your hum drum, Wonderbread existence of accidental racism and wishing you could sip on Henny out yo crunk cup without a bitch giving you the side-eye? Course you are.”)

http://archive.azcentral.com/ic/pdf/resolution-opposing-legalization-marijuana.pdf  I would ask all of the Republicans who represent all or part of DuPage County to endorse the resolution including U.S. Representatives Hultgren and Roskam; Governor Rauner; Lt.

http://rockrivertimes.com/2017/03/23/differences-apparent-in-pot-legalization-debate/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Anita Bedell, executive director of Illinois Church Action on Alcohol & Addiction Problems, said, “Just because something brings in revenue doesn’t mean it’s a good idea. They’re not considering the harm, they’re not considering costs.” Proponents also say it will spur on jobs. “So has gambling, so has other things …,” Bedell said. “There’s always going to be money in some things, but this is not a good way to have money for Illinois, and it would just cause more harm and cause more damage.” . . . Illinois Family Institute’s David Smith opposes legalization and said there would still be a black market. “The guy on the street that’s selling the pot doesn’t have to have the brick and mortar and the overhead and the employees and the insurance, and the workman’s comp,” Smith said. Smith also dismissed proponents who say illegal marijuana is a criminal justice issue because, he said, there are a very small number of inmates in the system for drug possession only. The Illinois Association of Chiefs of Police said they oppose the bill because of the traffic safety concerns.) . . . Rauner’s office said Thursday the governor is currently reviewing the legalization measure.)

Far too many act as operatives or as dupes for whoever gives them the most money. Everyone involved in government, in politics, in media, in etc. should be required to disclose the amounts and sources of their income.  I get a $50,856 Civil Service Retirement System pension and $2,028 Social Security.

In 1969, my Democrat Post Office superiors succeeded eliminating my GS-4 Step 3 salary (currently $16.60/hour) by forcing me to resign.)

— Editorial should have condemned protesters – Gerald Staraitis, Naperville
http://www.chicagotribune.com/suburbs/naperville-sun/ct-nvs-voice-letters-opinion-st-0312-20170311-story.html
(FROM THE LETTER: A recent editorial lauds the scores of elected local officials for meeting with constituents who may, from time to time, be upset. Nothing to disagree with that. So without indicating party affiliation, the Democrat House Representative used as a courageous example of attending a town meeting had no clue whether he could be facing an angry group. Really? So is the Naperville Sun thinking that the militant anti-Trump “Indivisible” crowd could have been planning to take over the town meeting? Using this example of being brave and taking the heat is not comparable. “Indivisible” was organized just after the November election by five young, elite, progressive, energetic communications experts with experience crafted in the Obama administration. They unite with the one specific purpose of creating mayhem at town meetings. Surely by now you have perused their battle cry in the pamphlet “Indivisible: A Practical Guide for Resisting the Trump Agenda,” 26 pages. It describes in detail how to organize, create the largest impression, enlist the aid of media, especially video to maximize the effect of their obstruction techniques. You know, similar to the obstruction techniques that elected and also paid Democratic congressional representatives use, boycotting legislative and committee meetings, engaging in sit-ins on the Senate floor, misinterpreting and misdirecting. Your editorial is your opinion, and it clearly lines up with this profound democratic militancy. Our representatives should have attended the meetings and taken the orchestrated abuse to collect their paychecks, if that is how you measure it. But nowhere do you suggest restraint on the part of the organizers’ zeal. Nowhere do you suggest that there is another side in this. And nowhere do you condemn the lockstep, hostile resistance displayed by the minority party.)

Ever-increasingly, they make it clear that they want to get rid of Whites. Ever-increasingly, in fear of anti-Whites or wanting to curry favor with anti-Whites, more and more and more Whites become anti-White themselves.)
http://www.dailyherald.com/article/20170310/news/170319953/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Two of five candidates vying to lead the state’s second-largest school district say a newly adopted high school social studies curriculum promotes “racism against white males” at a forum Thursday. Incumbent board President Donna Smith of Hanover Park, and incumbent trustees Veronica Noland and Cody Holt, both of Elgin, face challengers Melissa Owens of Bartlett and Enoch Essendrop of Elgin for three 4-year term seats on the Elgin Area School District U-46 board April 4 hosted by the district’s Citizens’ Advisory Council. At a February school board meeting, Holt and board member Jeanette Ward voted against adoption of the new curriculum, which Ward said had a “pervasive liberal bias.” Ward quoted the following passage about discrimination from the textbook “Macgruder’s American Government”: “White Americans have been historically reluctant to yield to nonwhite Americans a full and equal place in the social, economic and political life of this nation. Over time, the principal targets of that ethnic prejudice have been African-Americans, Native Americans, Asian-Americans and Hispanic Americans. The white-male-dominated power structure has also been slow to recognize the claims of women to an equal place in American society.” She said it “smacks of racism against white males.” The curriculum was approved by a 5-2 board vote. Essendrop, 19, a student at Providence Baptist College in Elgin running on a similar platform as Holt, said he shared Ward’s perspective. “I can’t believe that we find ourselves in the 21st century still judging people by the color of their skin and not the content of their character,” he said, paraphrasing the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr.’s “I Have a Dream” speech. “We need to stop putting people in different groups and admit that we are 100 percent Americans.” Noland, 50, an alumna of the district’s Hispanic Parent Leadership Institute elected to her first term in April 2013, rejected Ward’s notion. “I believe my fellow board member’s comments are actually quite racist,” she said. “I’m opposed to censorship of materials … you head down the road toward book burning and I am completely opposed to that.”  She added, it is wrong to impose a “narrow ideology” over an entire school district. Holt, 25, a 2010 graduate of Larkin High School elected in April 2015 to a 2-year unexpired term, said he would like to see the district adopt “curriculum that presents both sides of any issue, that way students can come to their own conclusions.” “Being able to send your child to a school that sets its own curriculum is where we need to go in the 21st century,” Holt said. Smith, 59, who has served on the board since 2001, said she voted for adopting the curriculum because it went through a process of evaluation. “It has been vetted by a lot of educators,” she said adding, anyone can find something offensive in any textbook. “I have the faith in our educators that they would take those textbooks and supplement them with other resources.” Owens, 48, chairwoman of the U-46 Citizens’ Advisory Council, said she agreed with the board’s decision on the curriculum as well as providing cultural competency training for teachers. “We have to recognize the fact that we have a minority-majority district,” she said adding such training allows teachers to recognize that “students see things through different filters based on their experiences.”)

http://www.lawndalenews.com/2017/03/lt-gov-evelyn-sanguinetti-joins-chicago-bulls-jimmy-butler-to-raise-awareness-about-childhood-hunger/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Lt. Governor Evelyn Sanguinetti joined Chicago Bulls’ Jimmy Butler, Kellogg’s and No Kid Hungry for the “Give a Child a Breakfast” event in downtown Chicago to raise awareness about childhood hunger. “One in five kids in Illinois is hungry. This is an important issue to me because I know what it is like to grow up with food insecurity,” said Lieutenant Governor Evelyn Sanguinetti. “My mother had me when she was only 15, and my parents often had to choose between paying the rent and putting food on the table.” Lieutenant Governor Sanguinetti addressed a group of students from Marshall High School and talked about her own experiences. The students were invited to the “Give a Child a Breakfast” event by Kellogg’s, where they had breakfast, had the opportunity to meet the lieutenant governor and play basketball with Butler. “Child hunger is not an issue isolated to large cities – it is prevalent in all 102 counties in Illinois,” Lieutenant Governor Sanguinetti said. “Breakfast is the most important meal of the day. We want our kids to have access to a healthy breakfast so they can stay alert in the classroom and excel in school.”)

Ever-increasingly, universities are anti-Protestant, anti-conservative, anti-Republican, anti-American, anti-White, anti-male, anti-older people, anti-non-poor people, anti-gun owners, anti-German Americans, anti-draft avoiders, and/or anti-those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time.)

The aforesaid, treat me like I am shit.  Far too many get involved in government and/or politics for the wrong reasons, usually to get power to manipulate/dominate individuals, manipulate/dominate organizations, manipulate/dominate companies, manipulate/dominate governments, and/or manipulate/dominate countries.)

What women’s jobs have you held?  I washed dishes for the minimum wage in the basement of the S.S. Kresges in Chicago Heights during my junior and senior years at Crete-Monee High School. My understanding is a) that I was the first and only White male to hold that job and b) that I held that job longer than anyone else.  Was I disadvantaged?  Neither of my parents had attended college, my father was the first of his ancestors to earn a high school diploma, and my mother never attended high school.  I had Osgood-Schlatter disease (SEE: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Osgood%E2%80%93Schlatter_disease)  My vision has never been correctable to 20/20.  I have partial red/green color blindness. My father, who fought type 1 diabetes from age 14, worked in the office of a chemical plant in Chicago Heights and almost always worked second jobs, usually playing music, to pay the family’s bills.  My mother stayed home and raised my brother and I.)

http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/local/politics/ct-bruce-rauner-rahm-emanuel-trump-healthcare-plan-met-20170307-story.html

The state is getting an estimated $14.1 billion in federal money this year to support traditional Medicaid and Medicaid expansion. The House GOP plan would switch state reimbursement from a federal match to a limited amount of money, blowing a big hole in a state budget that’s already severely out of whack amid a record impasse in Springfield.)

SPRINGFIELD STATE JOURNAL REGISTER
— Senate frustrated by Rauner agencies’ budget-cut silence – AP  (DIERSEN: Obviously, during the 1980s and 1990s, when the Democrats who ran GAO were asked how GAO could/should cut its spending, those Democrats said get rid of GAO employees who were Republican, White, male, older, and/or non-veteran and especially those who did not make GS-13 (currently $94,610) by age 25, GS-14 (currently $111,801) by age 30, GS-15 (currently $131,508) by age 35, and Senior Executive Service (currently $161,900) by age 40.)
http://www.sj-r.com/news/20170307/senate-frustrated-by-rauner-agencies-budget-cut-silence
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Gov. Bruce Rauner’s administration is frustrating state senators by refusing to answer questions about where agencies could tighten their belts. Several Senate committees grilled agency directors Tuesday about spending cuts to deal with a multibillion-dollar deficit. The Democratic-controlled committees teamed up to put Rauner on the spot. They blame him for scuttling the Senate’s negotiated budget compromise last week.)

CHICAGO SUN-TIMES
— Staying home from New Trier – Shia Kapos
http://chicago.suntimes.com/news/kapos-making-political-oratory-great-again/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: New Trier High School’s seminar day examining civil rights has gone off without a hitch. No numbers yet on attendance, but the auditorium seating was nearly filled. At least one family, however, chose not to send their student to school. Robert Blackwell Jr., a Chicago entrepreneur and friend and supporter of President Barack Obama, says his daughter stayed home. While the school took some heat from conservative parents who thought the curriculum leaned too far left, Blackwell worried the content just wasn’t appropriate. He lives on the South Side and his daughter lives on the North Shore with her mom. Blackwell said negative images were being reinforced, and he pointed to a session called “Blackenomics 101,” based on a rap song that uses the N-word. “This session tells white teenagers that blacks need to express themselves through vulgarity and violence,” he said. Blackwell is chairman of EKI-Digital, which helps companies monetize technology investments, and he’a chairman of Killerspin table-tennis company. Keynote speakers were Colson Whitehead, who wrote “The Underground Railroad,” and Andrew Aydin, who with U.S. Rep. John Lewis, co-authored “March.”)

To postpone/avoid being gotten rid of by anti-Whites, more and more and more Whites are becoming anti-White. Should I write a book about the leading White anti-Whites in Wheaton, in Glen Ellyn, in Milton Township, in DuPage County, in Illinois, and in America?)
