Phrase of the Day (hand over fist)-07OCT21

Today’s “Phrase of the Day” is “hand over fist” and its meaning is “very quickly/rapidly”.

Example Sentence:  “The company’s leadership knows how to make Facebook and Instagram safer, but won’t make the necessary changes because they have put their astronomical (huge) profits before people.” We shouldn’t be surprised that making money hand over fist is any company’s primary motivation. But here we have further evidence that Facebook is a uniquely socially toxic platform.
