The remarkable thing about this information age is that we now have much more information on companies and their top management. This election is heavily backed by industry moguls who have and would like to continue a bought and paid for relationship with political figures. These moguls (oligarchs) while supplying some jobs in the U.S. have moved as many if not more out of the U.S. Their deals have allowed the current fiscal morass to deepen while backing any candidate who will unseat the current President. One of the reasons it has been so hard to get any work done in Congress is the deep pockets of industry and their relationship to individual members and their party. Along with the money transfers between people is the idea that a non white has the audacity to buck the system. There we have it, aside from the unspoken bias yet often prominently inferred, we have ordinary people who fail to understand that this fiscal issue has been coming for a while but we have been misdirected  by patriotic speeches designed to keep our vision off of the obvious. Occasionally a bit of truth leaks out and we overall do not believe it  since the patriotism card is being played . We are experiencing sound bites from prominent figures who say a thing to get attention much like little children seeking attention. We have no end to the media seekers who continually resurrect ideas that have been proven wrong and inconsequential (enter the Donald). There are a multitude of information outlets that tell the real story but so many  succumb to the race and hate baiters who have no relevant information but maintain a truckload of innuendo and deceit. I believe once the followers of these lost souls see that there are other avenues of information then these miscreants will fade away like the smoke from a campfire.
