— Half of young Americans see better financial future – AP (DIERSEN: How much better off financially are you than your father? I am far better off financially than my father ever was, but he had to fight type 1 diabetes from age 14, none of his ancestors had earned a high school diploma, his wife never attended high school, he gave lots of money to Trinity Lutheran Church in Crete and then to Hope Lutheran Church in Park Forest, and he had the expense of raising me and my brother.)

— Looking at Trump’s tax returns is only the first step – Catherine Rampell (DIERSEN: Have your federal tax returns been audited by IRS? In 1977, while I was working for IRS, Money Magazine looked at my federal tax returns and decided a) to paint my education deductions as being improper, b) to harm me financially, and c) to end my IRS career. In its February 1978 issue, Money Magazine published a 4-page article on me in which it painted my education deductions as being improper. In the article, Money Magazine hinted/implied/argued/shouted that the graduate business and accounting courses I deducted were not job-related, did not help me carry out my job duties, were taken by me to get a job in the private sector, and were a distraction. My Democrat IRS superiors were more than happy to use Money Magazine’s article to disallow my education deductions and to end my IRS career. Money Magazine and IRS would not have done the aforesaid if I had been a Democrat, a minority, a female, or a veteran. Further, the writer of the article disapproved of my demographics, including my religion and my national origin.)

FORBES
— DIERSEN HEADLINE: Anti-Trumps demonize, denigrate, and condemn Kavanaugh’s comportment. My critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have always tried to get me to raise my voice, to get angry, and to lose my temper. I should write a book about them.)
https://www.forbes.com/sites/johnbaldoni/2018/10/06/what-justice-kavanaugh-teaches-us-about-comportment/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Partisans on both sides of the issue have made much of the hearings. Those for Kavanaugh’s nomination believe he was railroaded by the left and therefore is entitled to defend himself, even losing his temper. Those against Kavanaugh position him as an arrogant and entitled person of privilege who shows himself without the temperament to be a justice. Anyone wrongly accused has a right to defend himself – loudly and vociferously. But when that person periodically loses his cool and resorts to partisan conspiracy theories, then people become suspicious. In fact, more than 2400 law professors signed a letter attesting to Kavanaugh’s intemperance and unsuitability for the high court. Comportment is essential to leadership. Until recently, our society has always valued politicians who kept their cool, in fact, those who did not were often voted from office, or mocked.)
