Social Media Platform Drives Some People To Operate In Self-Aggrandizement While Promoting Themselves To Speak As An Expert On A Subject Matter

Get this! I read something on social media early this morning that still has me totally flabbergasted and in disbelief. The truth of the matter is NONE OF US can operate above what we know. I find it interesting that the psychological affect of the social media platform drives some people to operate in self-aggrandizement all while promoting themselves to speak as an expert on a subject matter they obviously know little to nothing about. Some will go as far as trying to assign scripture(s) as a means to give credibility to their sincere ignorance. But we know that God will not say anything that is contrary or diametrically opposed to His written word. NEVER

Here it is! Just as you wouldn’t go to an automotive mechanic to resolve a complex plumbing issue at your home, and just as you wouldn’t turn to a podiatrist (foot doctor) to perform an open heart surgery, y’all better be careful who you consult when standing at the crossroads of life. The results could be damaging, detrimental, devastating or DEADLY. Alvin Lafon Jones

Makes No Sense!

I have not heard neither candidate say they have met with Richard Joyner hell he is the current Councilman for Ward 3.

Meeting with each other for what?

The thing to do when you know the elected official personally is to meet with the current elected official.

But that is that young folk mess.

So is it about what is best for the community or about self?

Have y’all noticed the Racist White Folk that used to attend the Council meetings no longer attend. They don’t have to because they enjoy the Blacks that attack the council. Curmilus Butch Dancy II 12/9/2021

CNBC’s Jim Cramer Gushes Over New Numbers: ‘Strongest Economy I’ve Ever Seen… A Marvel to Behold’

CNBC host Jim Cramer reacted to new jobless claim numbers by gushing that this is “the strongest economy, perhaps, I’ve ever seen.”

Cramer delivered his 2022 Investing Club Game Plan Thursday afternoon, during which he grew very excited while discussing the new numbers. Namely, this week’s initial unemployment claims hit a 52-year low of 184,000.

“So what do I see for 2022? What’s my outlook? Right, first of all, to me, we have the strongest economy, perhaps I have ever seen,” Cramer told his club.

“See that number this morning, that unemployment number? It’s the best in years, best since ’69,” Cramer said, and added “We have all spotted the endless help wanted signs, the housing and apartment shortages, the tremendous demand for goods and services. A marvel to behold.”

“Oh, people are confident about their jobs. I say fantastic, and the ability to even get better ones if they want to,” he continued. “They’re spending more than I’ve ever seen, but they’re doing it with cash, not on credit. They’re doing so in roaring 20s style, but there’s nothing to feel guilty about, we’ve been through Hell as a people.”

Cramer went on to predict a stable economy under Fed Chair Jerome Powell, and even found a silver lining on inflation. (Read more)
