Phrase of the Day (jump/leap to conclusions)-24APR22

Today’s “Phrase of the Day” is jump/leap to conclusions and it is a phrase meaning “make a quick decision or judgment before knowing/considering all the facts”.

Example Sentence: While billionaires have seen their bank accounts balloon (increase rapidly) and corporations are raking in (earning) record profits, ordinary people are hurting from decades-high inflation. By some accounts, the inequality gap in the US is worse now than it was in France in the 1780s just before the French Revolution. It’s easy to get angry about all this, but you might want to wait a moment before jumping to the seemingly obvious conclusion that gross inequality is bad and we really ought to do something about it.
