East Point Georgia Annual Christmas Tree Lightning

by C. Henry Adams

On a cold winter's night of Friday, December 4th 2015, I had the opportunity to witness the City of East Point Annual Christmas Tree Lightning.  To my surprise, there were hundreds to likely a thousand citizens who participated in this event. 

During the program, the City served hot cocoa and popcorn regarding refreshments.

We all had the opportunity to hear great Children / Teenager's Choirs  ( Heritage Elementary School, Parklane Elementary School, and Tri-Cities High School ) sing several Christmas Melodies, as well as, receive greetings from Georgia State Senator Vincent D. Fort of East Point, Georgia.

This was a well secured occasion protected by both East Point Police Department and Fire Department.

I briefly spoke to City Council Lady - LaTonya Martin of Ward D who appeared with a smile and I'm glad everyone there were in Great Spirits.

Happy Holidays Everyone!

ISIS Influence Is Real In The USA And On Social Media

by C. Henry Adams


ISIS or Daesh Influence is Real in the USA and on Social Media.

People are influenced by various forms of Communications they VIEW, HEAR, READ and FEEL EMOTIONALLY.

Let's face this fact and continue to move forward. 

But, many American People like myself, REFUSE to live in FEAR.

What do we know about Terror or Fear?

Let's see:

1) It can kill an Economy.
2) It place fear in the minds of everyday People.
3) It can cause psychological illness within an Individual IF they allow it to...
4) It is brought about in some cases by Evil Deeds.
5) It can cause other health related illness within an Individual IF they allow it to...
6) It brings about stress.

What can we do to stop the Terror or FEAR regarding ISIS or any other Terror Related Group whether they be Foreign or Domestic in description or identity?

Here's my recommendations:

1) If you are a Believer in God, put Your Trust in God while thinking positive; moving forward.
   Option B) If you are not a believer, think Positive and keep moving forward.

2) Be Vigilant, be aware of your surroundings.  If you see something, say something, then MOVE AWAY from Danger.

3) Defend Yourself, your Family, your Friends, your Associates and your Country to round all things up; IF there is NO other RECOURSE.

Enough is enough, Folks.

These are my thoughts, what say you?

Healthcare In America

by C. Henry Adams

Over the course of the development regarding BIE MG Blogs, passion expressed in articles regarding the ACA or Obamacare was posted several times.

After thorough reviews, it is duly noted that one's opinion regarding the 'Healthcare Law' is just that; an opinion not necessarily expressed or agreed upon at BIE Companies, by its Agents or Associates.

However, out of concern, I will just state facts going forward regarding Healthcare in America, the United States.

1) It is Law of the land in the USA that you get Healthcare Insurance or be penalized financially.  Why?  Because, this law is a tax according to the U.S. Supreme Court.

2) In the USA, Healthcare Insurance with or without tax subsidies is high in cost.

3) People are putting off medical treatments whether they have Healthcare Insurance or not according to a recent Gallup Article on November 30th 2015.

4) Twenty-three (23) Healthcare Co-ops went out of business, regardless of  ANY political parties reasoning.

Ok, those are my thoughts and concerns, what might you say?

Thanks!

Understanding Commodity Investments

 

By C. Henry Adams

According to a Google definition, a Commodity is "a raw material or primary agricultural product that can be bought and sold, such as copper or coffee."

Recently as of  November 27th 2015 on the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE"), it was reported that Deere & Company (" John Deere") stock was down by 91 cents at 1.14 % loss, priced at $79.09 USD.

Professionally, I do NOT proclaim to be a stock market licensed expert or financial guru, period.

However, John Deere Tractors or should I say, the "Deere & Company" Organization has been around since 1837; this Business is a Great American Commodity in my professional opinion. 

Perhaps, it is a good time to invest in this stock. 

But, I can not guarantee that statement. 

However, according to the USDA ERS State Facts Sheets, poverty has increased to 18.5% in 2013 compared to 16% in 1979 within the USA.

Should we be concern? YES. 

Should we continue to seek a solution and resolve this issue?  ABSOLUTELY.

What could help?  My answer would be to continue to invest in US Commodities.

Those are my thoughts, what might be yours?
