Just wondering … are these the states that own the most guns so they want to shut off their electricity and it will make it easier to confiscate them? Carol Roth: Dear corporations: Mind your own business: Companies have waded into a variety of social, cultural, and political agendas that have absolutely nothing to do with their businesses and the goods and services they provide to customers. Often, it hasn’t gone well. Companies have faced social media backlash, boycotts, and, in many cases, reduced revenues and stock prices. You, as a business, don’t have the luxury to spout off and wade into the social discourse anymore. The economic environment has changed. Right now, more than ever, you need to mind your own business, both figuratively and literally. Now is the time to re-evaluate what matters — and that is running a business, not being a cultural pundit. As we have seen from the backlash, many customers despise it when you stop being a business and start speaking on unrelated issues. Keep your focus on your business. Appreciate your customers and provide great products, services, and thoughtful customer service. Take great care of your employees. https://www.theblaze.com/op-ed/roth-corporations-mind-business Major Supermarkets to ban paying with Cash or Card and only accept payments via Digital ID & Facial Recognition Technology: All major supermarkets will very soon no longer accept cash or card payments, and instead, force customers to use their face or fingerprints to pay for essential items, in what is another huge leap toward a dystopian cashless society. At the checkout, users will be forced to authenticate their payment by showing their face or the palm of their hand. . . The program has already gone live in five St Marche grocery stores in Sao Paulo, Brazil, with more trials also planned for Asia and the Middle East. Mastercard says it plans to roll it out globally later this year. “Our goal with this new program is to make shopping a great experience for consumers and merchants alike, providing the best of both security and convenience." “All the research that we’ve done has told us that consumers love biometrics." Mastercard cited a study that claims 74% of the global population has a “positive attitude” towards biometrics. That number is highly questionable, but are the 74% aware of the dangers of implementing this kind of technology? https://expose-news.com/2022/05/24/supermarkets-to-ban-paying-with-cash-or-card/ Amir Tsarfati: Tune in Friday, May 27th, 12:00 PM PDT: A new religion is emerging, and it is spreading fast. Unlike religious takeovers of the past, there is no fight taking place. In fact, the followers of many other belief systems have been quick to embrace it and incorporate it into their doctrine. It is a non-judgmental, feel-good religion of ecumenism and inclusion and acceptance of all people and all lifestyles. There is only one group of people who are rejected from this new global religion – the followers of Jesus Christ. Join Amir Tsarfati for his teaching, The Rise of the One World Religion, as he examines this new system that will eventually unite all people under one man – the antichrist. https://t.me/s/beholdisraelchannel Starts @ 1:16 - Fair Use -
