— Scarlet letters, political payback and City Hall’s do-not-hire list Because
the list is public to anybody who asks to see it, it works as a kind of a
public shaming. – CST Editorial (DIERSEN: In retrospect, with benefit of
hindsight, my Democrat GAO Chicago office superiors wanted me a) to become an
active member in a class action lawsuit that charged them with reverse
discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation in 1988 and b) to sue them
for political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, age
discrimination, and retaliation in 1998. My Democrat GAO Chicago office superiors
could use the aforesaid to help them hire and retain young Democrat minorities
and young Democrat females.)
