Introducing…Bitcoin, Crypto and Tech
Automation and the fusion of technologies, such as blockchain, artificial intelligence, virtual reality, robotics and others have propelled society – a reboot of sorts. The COVID-19 pandemic also accelerated this paradigm shift. Yet, key segments of the global population are not prepared to keep pace or take advantage of the possibilities ahead.

Social dilemma: Haitian-Americans know whom to vote for, but are clueless about why to vote
Haitian-Americans’ position is clear: they will vote Democrat because Biden is better off dealing with political corruption and bad governance in Haiti, the country Trump called shithole. They will vote against the Republican establishment because Trump will cancel TPS while Biden promises he will renew or extend it for the thousands of Haitians who are no longer at risk of deportation because of it.
