NAPERVILLE SUN
-- DIERSEN HEADLINE: Naperville Sun discusses teardowns, that is, the replacement of obsolete homes with homes that generate many more tax dollars for local governments, especially for local schools. An older prosperous female Democrat voter in my precinct who cast a Democrat ballot in the February 5 election told me that one of her reasons for doing so was to protest teardowns. She must believe that making it easier for the less prosperous to live in more prosperous areas is more important than funding local schools.
