CHICAGO TRIBUNE
— DISGUSTING, TRAGIC: Pot question: Cook County Commissioner John Fritchey wants to get the County Board to ask voters if recreational marijuana use should be made legal. To get that ball moving, he plans to introduce a resolution next week that would place the referendum on the March primary ballot in Cook County. A vote on the matter could come in December. Fritchey, an advocate for making pot legal and taxing it, will outline the effort at a morning press conference alongside Commissioner Luis Arroyo Jr., Ald. Walter Burnett, 27th, activists and religious leaders. – Hal Dardick (DIERSEN: If you promote pot, you promote destruction.)

The training presupposes that all a) men discriminate against women, b) Whites discriminate against non-Whites, c) older people discriminate against younger people, d) non-LGBTQ people discriminate against LGBTQ people, e) Protestants discriminate against non-Protestants, f) German Americans discriminate against non-German Americans, g) Republicans discriminate against non-Republicans, h) conservatives discriminate against non-conservatives, i) patriotic people discriminate against non-patriotic people, j) Americans discriminate against non-Americans, k) rich people discriminate against non-rich people, and l) those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time discriminate against those whose ancestors have not been in America for a long time. Consequently, federal employees are overwhelmingly a) anti-men, b) anti-White, c) anti-older people, d) anti-non-LGBTQ people, e) anti-Protestant, f) anti-German American, g) anti-Republican, h) anti-conservative, i) anti-patriotic people, j) anti-American, k) anti-rich people, and l) anti-those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time.)

ASSOCIATED PRESS
— Woman fired for flipping off Trump’s motorcade (DIERSEN: Constructively, my Democrat GAO superiors fired me in 1997 when I was 49 years old a) because I had become an active member in a class action lawsuit in 1988 that charged GAO with reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation, b) because I had always complained about patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation, and c) because they were under tremendous pressure from Democrat politicians to get rid of their employees who were Republican, White, male, older, and/or non-veteran. Previously, they had 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.)

NEW YORK TIMES
— Republican Plan Would Raise Taxes on Millions – Ben Casselman and Jim Tankersley (DIERSEN: Who wants you to pay more federal income tax? Ever-increasingly, ever since I became an IRS employee in 1971 when I was 22 years old, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have wanted me to pay more federal income tax. They are ever-increasingly furious that I have paid less federal income tax every year since 1972 because I itemize.)
https://www.nytimes.com/2017/11/06/business/republican-plan-would-raise-taxes-on-millions.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Nearly half of all middle-class families would pay more in taxes in 2026 than they would under current rules if the proposed House tax bill became law, and about one-third would pay more in 2018, according to a New York Times analysis, a striking finding for a bill promoted as a middle-class tax cut. President Trump and congressional Republicans have pitched the plan unveiled last week as a tax cut for most Americans. But millions of middle-class families — particularly those with children — would see an immediate tax increase, averaging about $2,000. Among the hardest-hit under the plan would be some of the most vulnerable taxpayers: those with huge out-of-pocket medical expenses. By 2026, 45 percent of middle-class families would pay more than what they would under the existing tax system.)
— Republican Tax Rewrite Helps Some Millionaires but Hurts Others – Jim Tankersley
https://www.nytimes.com/2017/11/06/us/politics/republican-tax-plan-rich-millionaires-trump.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The Republican tax bill picks winners and losers across the income scale, including among millionaires. It is good news for people like President Trump but bad news for professional athletes. The bill delivers large breaks to high-earning owners of certain businesses, known as pass-through entities, which comprise most of Mr. Trump’s business empire, and to heirs of large estates, such as Mr. Trump’s children. So-called passive owners of businesses like real estate partnerships and hedge funds or even a local landscaping service, the example that Republicans pointed to when unveiling the plan last week, would enjoy the largest tax cut of all individual taxpayers under the bill. In part, that’s because the legislative text includes a carve-out allowing these earners to maintain their state and local income tax deduction — a valuable benefit that all other individual taxpayers could lose under the bill. By contrast, millionaires who earn money solely from their high-salaried employment — such as professional athletes — would see their taxes go up if the bill becomes law, because of a steep increase in their personal tax rates.)
