IS IT TRUE that the Evansville City Council passed a Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) Policy back in 2022 by a vote tally of 9 to 0 without it drawing much attention?…this sort of thing happens regularly these days since the pillars of mainstream media have been financially gutted to the point that they can’t provide adequate coverage of what is going on of importance?…this should have been on the front page of the flagship newspaper in Evansville, and it may have been more realistic to take such a game-changing decision to a vote of the people?…every time an elected body ignores the will of the people it comes back to bite them on the backside?
IS IT TRUE that the reality of what happened was that the Evansville City Council approved forming a DEI Council to advocate for DEI initiatives not only in making decisions about who gets jobs at the City of Evansville, but it also extends into private businesses?…DEI started out with reasonable aspirations but has morphed into what some are calling reverse discrimination?…the new DEI advisory council that the City Council approved is just supposed to advise but this is not how things have been going with the early adopters?…in big progressive cities on the coasts, DEI has become a discriminatory set of programs that are already being canceled due to the realization that it is removing merit from the hiring process, resulting in unqualified people being placed in jobs due to appease the vocal proponents of DEI, and further dividing people while fanning the flames of entitlement?
IS IT TRUE the City of Evansville according to the Census Bureau, has been losing population for decades and even with annexation we are down to 115,749 people and dropping by the day?… It appears from looking at the websites for the City of Evansville and its Fire and Police Department websites that about 1,000 people are toiling in the public payroll?…there is no information on these websites about the demographic makeup of the employees so we can’t tell if the goal of promoting diversity REFLECTIVE of the City of Evansville is happening with city staff?…the City of Evansville is made up of 78.4% white people, 13.6% African Americans, 3.5% Hispanics, 1.3% Asians with the balance being mixed race or other?…if the goal of the DEI Gods is to impose a reflective workforce across the city payroll, the numbers employed should reflect those percentages?…it would be very interesting to learn if Evansville is already reflective or not because it may not be an issue at all outside of the world called POLITICAL VIRTUE SIGNALING?
IS IT TRUE that under the duties of the DEI Council, there are indeed three articles that promote quotas and the third one extends to private workforces?…this policy mimicked policies adopted by failing cities on the coast that can’t seem to see reality over ideology?…this whole DEI thing will probably turn out to be a fad as merit is ignored and services are challenging to deliver due to obsessing over DEI before competence?…the nine members who voted for this, should consider repealing it and getting on with the business of governing for prosperity and growth?…we ask what will these leaders do when the John Galts of the Tri-State take their talents elsewhere?
