Hiring The Best For The Job Could Be "Unfair," JP Morgan Chase Loses Customers Money, Deepfake Costs Company $25 Million - Read, Share, & Subscribe - SherlocExposes.com
Issues with critters? Sick of using things that can easily make you sick or kill you?
Dr. Killigan’s is THE all-natural solution. Check out what a customer had to say about their “Six Feet Under” non-toxic insect spray:
“I bought this to get rid of the ants that built a nest in my flagstone patio and sidewalk. I have granddaughters and pets, and I didn't want to use chemicals that could make them sick if they were exposed. I've used other natural pesticides in the past with mild success but this stuff definitely does the trick! I've only had to spray one time over a month ago...still no sign of the ants returning. 10/10, will be purchasing more.”

“The American Psychological Association claimed that ‘hiring the most qualified candidate might be unfair’ based on one of its recent studies.
The study, titled ‘Can Selecting the Most Qualified Candidate Be Unfair?,’ examined people’s perceptions of merit-based hiring after learning more about the socioeconomic status of potential workers.
While previewing the results, it argued that hiring the most qualified candidate could contribute to more inequality.
‘Fairness heuristic theory suggests that, as long as people consider selection processes such as hiring and promotion to be meritocratic and fair, they may continue to accept ever-increasing levels of income inequality. Yet, in reality, inequality and merit-based decisions are deeply intertwined,’ the study noted.
It explained, ‘Socioeconomic advantages and disadvantages early in life can have profound influences on educational achievement, test scores, work experiences, and other qualifications that form the basis of ‘meritocratic’ selection processes. Yet the near-universal support for meritocracy suggests that most people may not give much weight to unequal advantages and disadvantages.’”
THINGS TO PONDER:
Being the absolute best you can be is now a thought crime…
If you interpret the findings of this report correctly, it says that you should set the bar lower, instead of helping people to become better…
You know what else does that?
Marxism.
Why is it always a “poor me” situation versus a “how can we empower those with ‘disadvantages’” to be the best that they can be?
Because there’s no money in the solution!
Let that sink in… then, spend some time studying the history of failed empires and you’ll see this scenario of the list of reasons why.

“Customers at a JPMorgan Chase branch say deposits aren’t showing up in their accounts, and the bank has been reluctant to address the issue.
Carla Garling, a small business owner, says that despite having a deposit slip, her local Chase branch hasn’t confirmed a $13,478 deposit to her account, reports KFOR Oklahoma News 4.
Since Chase won’t get back to her, Garling is now facing financial burdens, including the need to pay her employees, without the much-needed money.
‘I’m trying to be patient, I’m trying to be kind about it. But I’ve got bills to pay that are going to come out of automatic draft out of my business account…
For a small business like mine, it can become detrimental very quickly.’
Employees at Chase reportedly told Garling that they didn’t know when or if she would receive her money.
After being contacted by Oklahoma News 4, Chase reportedly appeared to become more motivated to help out Garling. The small business owner said that hours after being probed by the media outlet, Chase told her that they promised to credit her account with the missing deposit.
Chase has been the subject of multiple reports alleging that the bank shut down accounts without clear reasoning or explanation.”
THINGS TO PONDER:
Still think that your money is yours once you deposit it into the “bank?”
Go back and read your deposit agreement, and you’ll quickly find out that’s not the case.
The good folks in this story got the message the hard way…
And, it’s part of an ongoing string of stories from big banks when it comes to YOUR money not being available to YOU… and those same banks seeming not to care about YOUR needs…
While holding on to your what was once your money.

“A finance worker in Hong Kong was tricked into paying £20 million of his company’s money to fraudsters because of an elaborate deepfake pretending to be his boss.
The employee joined a video call with who he thought was the business’s chief financial officer. He was initially suspicious after a message from the CFO mentioned a ‘secret transaction’, suggesting it was a phishing scam.
After joining the call he remained unsure, with the CFO apparently appearing to be ‘a little off’.
However, after other colleagues dialed in and supported the move, the staffer agreed to make 15 transfers into five local bank accounts.
In a chilling glimpse of the future, it later transpired not only was the boss a deepfake, but so was everyone else on the call.
‘[In the] multi-person video conference, it turns out that everyone [he saw] was fake,’ said Senior Superintendent Baron Chan Shun-ching, speaking to the city’s public broadcaster RTHK.
It appears all of the AI-generated videos were created using past online conferences, while the fraudsters also used WhatsApp and email to make the scam even more credible.”
THINGS TO PONDER:
In this brave new world, you have to keep your head on a swivel…
This is a sad story, but also a cautionary one… check, double-check, triple-check, and then check again…
If it sounds off, that’s the leading indicator that it’s off…
Remember that gut feeling that you get?
That’s built into you for a reason…
