— Should children have skin in the game for college? You bet – Steve Rosen  (DIERSEN: What percent of your college expenses came from money that you earned? For me, it was 100%, but my outstanding parents provided me with room and board in their home in Crete a) while I was a full-time student at UIC 1966-1968, b) during weekends my first semester at NIU in 1969, and c) the summer of 1969. I paid for my college expenses and for new cars with money that I earned washing dishes 1964-1966; cleaning golf shoes, chipping slag, and pumping gasoline in 1966; delivering mail 1966-1969; and working on an automobile assemble line and as a security guard in 1970. My critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes stress that college expenses were much lower back then and that UIC and NIU are not Ivy League schools.)

— Chance the Rapper gives out 30K backpacks to kids at parade – WBBM/CNN  (DIERSEN: What do you give out to others? I have given out GOPUSA ILLINOIS emails free of charge and without any advertising since 2000. Those emails have gone out each and ever morning since 2004, each and every evening since 2015, and they have included links to more than 278,100 articles and information on many upcoming events.)
http://www.wtol.com/story/36123613/chance-the-rapper-gives-out-30k-backpacks-to-kids-at-parade
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Chance the Rapper led the way as grand marshal of the annual Bud Billiken Parade in the South Side. Chance, a native of the city’s Chatham neighborhood, donated 30,000 stuffed backpacks for children along the parade route. The parade, now in its 88th year, is a tradition meant to serve as a back-to-school send off. “This is the best thing they have every year,” said a parent on the route. Since education is the focus, funding for public schools was on the minds of parade-goers and city leaders. “Right now we are suffering in a racially discriminatory funding system that it hurts funding in our state,” said  Forrest Claypool, Chicago Public Schools CEO. And while Gov. Bruce Rauner made an appearance before the parade, he did not address the funding issue during the event. Mayor Rahm Emanuel did address the issue. “The state of Illinois has the responsibility not to just show at a parade, not just to cheer, but to actively put resources that taxpayers of the city of Chicago give the state and fund our education equitably and fairly,” Emanuel said.)

AMERICAN THINKER
— Guess who pays for those $150,000 Columbia journalism degrees? – Monica Showalter (DIERSEN: Since I became the GOPUSA Illinois Editor in 2000, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have viciously demonized me, viciously denigrated me, and viciously condemned me because neither my bachelor’s degree nor any of my three master’s degrees are in journalism. In my defense, much of what GAO Analysts do is very similar to what journalists do. I worked for GAO as an Analyst 1980-1997, the last 11 years of which at the GS-13 Step 1-10 levels, currently $94,610-$122,991. Further, much of what GAO Analysts do is similar to what IRS Revenue Officers do. I worked for IRS as a Revenue Officer 1971-1980, the last 5 1/2  years of which at the GS-12 Step 1-5 levels, currently $79,563-$90,173.)
http://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2017/08/guess_who_pays_for_those_150000_columbia_journalism_degrees.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: What is questionable is the issue of who pays for the degree. President Obama put limits on repaying back student loans at the 20-year mark, meaning anyone who takes out debt at the $150,000 level is only going to be repaying a fraction of that debt. The taxpayers will pick up the remainder of the tab. Should the taxpayers be paying for that? Particularly if the journalists being turned out end up being advocacy journalists on just one side of the political spectrum? That is worth asking. Cooper makes a very important point in noting that the federal incentives for taking out high-dollar loans and the abbreviated payment obligations make high-priced, questionable-value degrees on offer inevitable at places like Columbia, writing:)

Not so fast. – Dan Balz  (DIERSEN: In 2018, will the Democrats who run in your precinct, in your municipality, in your township/ward, in your county, in Illinois, and in America promise that if elected, they will use government to get rid of all individuals, all organizations, all companies, all governments, all countries, all etc. that are Trump supporters, Protestant, conservative, Republican, American, White, male, older, rich, gun owners, German American, draft avoiders (except Bill Clinton), and/or those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time?)

MADISON
— 5 Figures That Define the Middle Class – Sean Williams  (DIERSEN: From what I see, because the cost of living is so high in DuPage County, you need way more than “$24,173 to $72,521” to live a middle class life style in DuPage County and save for your retirement.)
http://host.madison.com/business/investment/markets-and-stocks/figures-that-define-the-middle-class/article_71955a5b-e0d6-5ebc-befc-12e6528774f0.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: 1. $24,173 to $72,521  First things first: we have to define what middle-class income actually is. According to Pew Research Center, which conducted a study on the shrinking middle class in late 2015, an individual would qualify for the middle class if he or she earned more than $24,173 in 2014 dollars, or less than $72,521. Pew’s official definition is income of between 67% and 200% of overall median household income. Back in 1971, some 80 million Americans were considered to be in the middle class, compared to 51 million Americans who were either lumped in the lower- or upper-income brackets. However, by 2015, there were 121.3 million lower- and upper-income Americans, combined (using Pew’s definition of 67% to 200% of median household income). This is compared to 120.8 million middle-income Americans. In a span of 44 years, the middle class had become the minority. . .4. Approximately 70% have less than $1,000 saved for emergencies It’s no secret that Americans aren’t good savers. The U.S. personal saving rate has dipped by more than 50% over the past five decades, and we’re saving nowhere near the recommended 10% to 15% of our paychecks. But it’ll probably shock you to see how bad the middle class is at socking away cash for emergencies. According to a survey from GoBankingRates in September 2016, 37% of persons bringing home $25,000 to $49,999 annually didn’t have a dime in savings, and another 35% had less $1,000. Similarly, 33% of the people making between $50,000 and $74,999 had $0 in savings, and 36% had less than $1,000. Essentially, 7 in 10 middle-class folks have less than $1,000 saved for emergencies, which is scary low. . .5. Debt at 122% of annual household income The middle class has also been highly proficient at racking up debt over the past two-plus decades, according to data from the Federal Reserve’s Survey of Consumer Finances, which is conducted every three years. Though debt for middle-class households hit an all-time high of 140% of annual household income in 2010, the 122% of debt relative to annual household income that middle-class households are lugging around as of 2013 still isn’t good. Comparatively, this is also nearly double the debt burden that middle-class families were contending with in 1989.)

— Ann Coulter slams Gov. Rauner as ‘retarded’ – Mark Brown
http://chicago.suntimes.com/news/brown-ann-coulter-slams-gov-rauner-as-retarded/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Conservative provocateur Ann Coulter gave Gov. Bruce Rauner’s first national television interview a bad review Friday, telling her 1.6 million Twitter followers that Rauner “either is retarded or playing retard.”  “His answer to every Q is, “Our system is broken.” Fascinating!” Coulter tweeted during an interview on FOX News Channel by host Bret Baier. Rauner was his normal evasive self, sidestepping Baier’s questions about President Trump, Chicago’s sanctuary city status and Obamacare. At one point, Baier seemed frustrated by his inability to get direct answers to his questions, but never called him out directly.)

CHICAGO TRIBUNE
— Ann Coulter takes shot at Gov. Rauner – Gregory Pratt
http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/local/breaking/ct-coulter-retarded-rauner-20170811-story.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Gov. Bruce Rauner gave a rare national interview to Fox News host Bret Baier on Friday that led conservative commentator Ann Coulter to sling a harsh insult Rauner’s way.  Rauner discussed illegal immigration and the state budget crisis on the program, and deflected  several questions. On Twitter, critics pounced, including Democratic state Rep. Christian Mitchell, who said on Twitter that Rauner did a “bellyflop.” But so far, the harshest criticism comes from Coulter, who attacked Rauner with her well-known brand of flame-throwing and sarcasm in a tweet. .@GovRauner either is retarded or is playing retard on @BretBaier. His answer to every Q is, “Our system is broken.” Fascinating!”  The word “retarded,” once ubiquitous as an insult, is now widely considered offensive. A spokeswoman for Rauner declined comment.)

WALL STREET JOURNAL
— Google Cancels Meeting on Diversity, Citing Safety Concerns for Employees  CEO had scheduled meeting after the firing of a Google engineer, which had set off a nationwide debate – Jack Nicas
https://www.wsj.com/articles/google-engineers-firing-fuels-debate-among-employees-1502395326
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Google canceled a companywide meeting about diversity just before it was set to begin Thursday, saying right-wing websites published the names of employees who had proposed questions, raising security concerns. Google Chief Executive Sundar Pichai said in an email to employees that the company decided to cancel the highly anticipated meeting after employees expressed concerns “about their safety and worried they may be ‘outed’ publicly for asking a question in the Town Hall.”)
— Google Episode Sends a Message: Diversity Is a Tough Sell in Silicon Valley  Tech firms face broad skepticism about results of industry’s push to attract more women and minorities – Georgia Wells and Yoree Koh  (DIERSEN: Because most young women and most young minorities are Democrats, it is easier for the Democrats who run the federal government to hire, to retain, and to promote young women and young minorities. But then again, because federal employees and federal retirees are viciously hated, it is harder for the Democrats who run the federal government to hire, to retain, and to promote young women and young minorities.)

FINANCIAL TIMES
— Modern employers must invest in all their staff – Niels Erich, San Francisco  (DIERSEN: My Democrat superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates in the federal government always hinted/implied/argued/shouted that the undergraduate and graduate courses that I took a) were not job-related, b) did not help me carry out my job duties, c) were taken by me to get a job in the private sector, and d) were a distraction.  To keep their jobs and to get promoted, my Democrat superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates focused on getting rid of federal employees who were Republican, White, male, older, and/or non-veteran.)
https://www.ft.com/content/ce016eae-7db6-11e7-ab01-a13271d1ee9c
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Having read the memo, a recurring subtext appears: Mr Damore felt stuck in his job, denied access to training and career development paths designed to increase diversity throughout the company. A perception formed in his mind, rightly or wrongly, that Google had overcompensated in its drive to address criticism over diversity. As he saw it, Google was now recruiting and grooming a subset of employees to bypass or even replace him, while excluding him from comparable investment and support. That he was a self-identified “conservative” in Silicon Valley did not help; his complaints were viewed as creating a hostile workplace environment.)

My Democrat superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates in the federal government always stressed to my superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates who were veterans that I avoided the draft.

Because my Democrat GAO superiors succeeded in forcing me to take their early retirement “offer” in 1997 when I was 49 years old, I have at least $72,135 less each year or $6,011 less each month or $1,387 less each week or $198 less each day to spend.)
https://www.fedsmith.com/2017/08/06/can-feds-use-retrograde-analysis-pursue-retirement-success/
(DIERSEN HEADLINE: Retrograde Analysis is an approach that uses reversed methodology. Think of it as a new tool; it has the benefit of providing perspectives that most linear thinkers would normally not consider. RA is not new or even unique as a general concept. It is likely many have used it without giving it much thought, let alone a name. In our everyday lives, we have problems occur that require we take an opposite and sometimes uncomfortable point of view to resolve. That is the essence of RA.)

KIPLINGER
— Worst Jobs for the Future: Legislator
http://www.kiplinger.com/slideshow/business/T012-S001-worst-jobs-for-the-future-2017/index.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Total number of jobs: 56,514  Projected job growth, 2016-2026: 1.5%  Median annual salary: $20,500  Typical education: Bachelor’s degree  It’s an ugly time to be in politics. The number of positions for local, state and federal legislators rarely changes, so competition can be fierce as we’ve all seen on the national stage. And despite what you might think about fat-cat politicos, government paychecks for the majority of elected officials are actually pretty light. On the bright side, opportunities to enter the field arise with every election, and pay for the top 10% in the field goes up to above $95,000 a year. Alternate Career  You can still affect change by pursuing a career as a social and community service manager. (And you can always get back into politics from this career path; it worked for Barack Obama.) Like many of our best jobs for the future, this occupation benefits from the aging population. As boomers increasingly lean on social services, such as adult day care and meal-delivery programs, managers of such businesses will be in greater demand. In fact, the number of these managers is expected to grow 15.7% by 2026 from 149,920 currently. Plus, the median salary is much more generous at $62,349 a year. You need at least a bachelor’s degree in social work, urban studies, public administration or a related field to get started. But reaching these managerial heights typically also requires relevant work experience of five years or more. And some employers prefer applicants with master’s degrees.)

http://www.dailyherald.com/news/20170731/state-cuts-2017-funds-for-voter-registration-integrity
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Local election authorities will lose more than $4.4 million in grant funds this year that pay for, among other things, purging ineligible names from voter registration rolls. But officials say they are used to the roller coaster nature of election funding. Amy Kelly, the assistant to the executive director of the Illinois State Board of Elections, notified county clerks of the bad news at the beginning of July. Six election bodies applied for at least $100,000 from what’s known as the IVRS Lump Sum Grant. In addition to voter registration integrity, the grant helps fund voter registration equipment and corresponding software licensing fees. The grant typically functions as a reimbursement for money already spent for such efforts. The money for 2017 became one of the many funding casualties in the state budget debate.)

In my defense, if I was that bad, a) the Post Office would NOT have hired me in 1966 or let me work there for almost 3 years, b) IRS would NOT have hired me in 1971 or let me work there for almost 9 years, c) IRS would NOT have promoted me in 1972, 1973, or 1974, d) GAO would NOT have hired me in 1980 or let me work there for almost 18 years, and e) GAO would NOT have promoted me in 1986.)

— Dem campaign chief vows no litmus test on abortion – BEN KAMISAR AND REID WILSON (DIERSEN: Democrats and Democrat plants, Libertarians and Libertarian plants, Greens and Green plants, and RINOs who reject the right to life plank in the Republican Party platform and in the Illinois Republican Party platform have always worked very hard against me. I should write a book about them.)

— The Final Humiliation of Reince Priebus – Molly Ball  (DIERSEN: What humiliations have you suffered? My Democrat GAO superiors forced me to retire in 1997 when I was 49 years old, always ranked me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance purposes, did not promote me beyond GS-13, 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 an $18,847 pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980. My Democrat IRS superiors did not promote me beyond GS-12, disallowed my education deductions in 1978, and disallowed my partial day per diem claims in 1974. My Democrat Post Office superiors forced me resign in 1969 and disallowed my sick leave requests in 1969 and 1968. I am no longer the TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois chairman, a Wheaton Chamber of Commerce Government Affairs Committee member, the Milton Township Republican Central Committee webmaster, an Illinois Center Right Coalition Steering Committee member, or an American Association of Political Consultants Midwest Chapter board member. My critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes hint/imply/argue/shout that I caused all of the aforesaid humiliation.)

— Will You End Up Working During Retirement? Chances Are, Yes. – Maurie Backman (DIERSEN: I would be working if I had to replace some or all of the $72,135/year in today’s dollars that I have lost and will forever lose because my Democrat GAO superiors succeeded in forcing me to take their early retirement “offer” in 1997 when I was 49 years old. In today’s dollars, my GAO salary was $122,991/year, but my Civil Service Retirement System pension is only $50,856/year.)
