MEANING: AMBLYOPIA and EMOLUMENTS


I have two words today:
amblyopia and emoluments.

According to a health site, amblyopia (also called lazy eye) is a type of poor vision that usually happens in just one eye but less commonly in both eyes. It develops when there’s a breakdown in how the brain and the eye work together, and the brain can’t recognize the sight from one eye.

According to an online dictionary, an emolument is a salary, fee or profit from employment or office. You've probably heard of the Emoluments Clause of the U.S. Constitution prohibiting a U.S. president from accepting an expensive plane from Qatar.

Yes, I have amblyopia, but, sadly, I'm not taking emoluments.

SHUTS DOWN

FOUND ON YOUTUBE: John Deere & Ford SHUTS DOWN Production In U.S.—Trumps Reaction Says It All!

John Deere and Ford are two different companies, so I'd go with SHUT DOWN.
