Are Facebook stocks a good investment?
The bulk of Facebook stock shares are going to institutions. 80% of Facebook funds come from advertisement. The price is way too high & risky as an investment to define a strong value. More than 1/2 of the users whom create the value of Facebook will make no profit from Facebook going live on the stock market. I have faith in Warren Buffet that Facebook is not the best stock to invest in for the common investor.

Own Your Voice To Get What You Want
As a woman, I am starting to learn if I want power over my personal and professional success I need to own my statements. I need to give my voice power. Young girls are taught to speak in a voice tone that is favorable to anyone and everything. It makes us come off timid and prevents us from getting what we want and need in romance and in our careers. So what is the solution? You can speak up for yourself but know when it is better be silent and listen, listening gains you wisdom about the situation. It will never lessen your power. Being the loudest and most arrogant can make you lose power rather than gain it. You can not win every battle, especially when it come to romantic conflicts. Pick your battles wisely. And most of all only apologize once, if at all. You do not have to apologize for having an honest opinion. You should apologize only once at the least and most, if you stated your honest opinion in a disrespectful way. Follow the golden rule. Be assertive( powerful verbals help but like, maybe, I think this might do not work) and do not be a bitch who has to have it her way or no way at all. When you take the bitch way, I can guarantee both your romance and career success will falter. – Briana Booker
Bulletin Points from President Obama’s 2012 State of the Union Address
Economic fairness was the theme for tonight’s State of The Union Address. Here are just a few key points from the speech:
- President Obama: Our oldest alliances in Europe and Asia are stronger than ever. Our ties to the Americas are deeper.
- If you make more than $1 million a year, you should not pay less than 30% in taxes’ – President Obama
- The most immediate priority is stopping a tax hike on 160 million working Americans while the recovery is still fragile.
- President Obama proposes generating clean energy to power 3 million homes on public lands.
- If you’re a business that wants to outsource jobs, you shouldn’t get a tax deduction for doing it.
- President Obama to call on states to raise dropout age to 18.
- President Obama is for women rights to equal pay for equal work.
-
Today General Motors is back on top as the world’s number 1 automaker.
- Train 2 million Americans that will lead directly to a job.
- Hold Wall Street accountable, so a crisis like this never happens again.
I thought the speech was direct, strong, passionate and organized. I hope these initiatives will be acted on this year and beyond. What are your opinions on the speech?
Apple Made in America: The Lost Dream
Got up slightly disgusted that as I type this, I have helped destroy American Jobs an the Middle Class I can only hope my children will see and experience. I am a huge fan of Apple products for the beauty of design and easy user-friendly platform. But I would pick a phone Made in America if I could. Is that possible? So blown over this New York Times article this morning. Our counterparts have out done us in skill and speed. Economic nightmare.
How can we stop big corporations, such as Apple, from permanently destroying American job growth an the Middle Class in America?
Read the New York Times Article below for details on Apple’s destruction to our economy and society:
