titanic struggle for soul of america....

A titanic struggle is waging on for the control of the eco soul mind of America between the deplorables lead by don quixote and powerful ruling class. The inner core of the empire is rotten. So ironical that both sides are so steeped in excesses of all the vices of an effete society.. but hurling accusations at each other both of which are guilty of. Indeed very sad that the age of great leaders is over...perhaps only Modi of India is the last of the Mohicans...

It's a veritable Hobson's choice for the people. Both sides are mired in controversies. One side supports big corporations and banks...the deep state which controls america through its tentacles.. is for wars across the world.. addicted to debt... while the other wants america to spend less on costly defence agreements with rich countries .. stop illegal immigrants... better relations with russia...and thinks climate change is a hoax..,

However both sides are votaries of a capitalistic society .... a system which is under seize in all the richest countries...with surmounting unmanageable debt ....

Day by day this ultimate war for the control of the world richest country... which is on the decline... is becoming more and more surreal ... with extreme media of both sides publishing their biased stories..

sadly a lot of truth about the American government and Hillary which has been released by wiki leaks is not being covered by 80% of the press which includes the most powerful media barons.. plus there are publications which are controlled by the richest people in the world who have also contributed to Clinton foundation.. like Carlos Slim...who are hurling unverified sexual accusations against trump... while bill's sexual victims who have come forward are not covered ..imperial rome at its peak...

Indeed a strange brew of events... wonder whether all this is at all affecting decisions of the voters..  america is a broken society where family and marriage are fading institutions ... more than 50% of mothers are single ... and more than 50% of marriages have failed... in these times these kind of sexual misdemeanours really do not make much of an impact...

No body really expects trump to be an angel or a choir boy... especially with a playboy billionaire past... similarly there are innumerable sexual escapades of bill Clinton...which are kept under wraps by the loyal mainstream media... hence I doubt whether all these highly charged innuendos have made any significant impact on the voter minds...

its just heaps of scurrilous accusations which has been discounted by most people... today most people across the world thanks to Hollywood and american tv soap operas have come to accept these frailties of human nature.. and become thick skinned to these rantings....

People have also become impervious to the political and financial corruption which associated with most politicians ... indeed a strange state of being where nothing titillates or shocks most people now... so the battle lines have been drawn ... a bare 2 - 4% difference in polls separates the 2 major candidates... which is well within the margin of error...most of the establishment and media have written off trump...

but still trump is drawing record crowds day after day even after clinton has dropped all the bombs she has....he gave an impassioned speech the other day when he challenged hillary to a drug test... some said trump was high on cocaine.. even that will not stick on teflon coated donald trump.. trump also pleaded with crowd that this was possibly america's last chance to vote for a change ...and also the world's last chance to restructure the deep economic imbalances which are plaguing the global economy...

forces of protectionism and autarky are spreading across the anaemic western world...forces which have gained strength after brexit... winds of change are buffeting the world.. capitalism is in the throes of a major economic depression and downturn dragged down by quagmire of deep ever mounting debt... unemployment .... closure of manufacturing and losing business to lower cost emerging markets... looming everywhere ...

all this has made people restless ... wanting change ... distrustful of politicians who they feel have been responsible for this current state of affairs.. though actually what has led to this is their failed free market economic and business models which are based on hyper competition and have reached their  limits of growth ... symptoms of post mature capitalist societies.... zero growth and negative interest rates...

added to this rising terror and migrants crises.... most advanced economies have become cauldrons of racism, violence, poverty, homelessness, broken marriages, heroin addiction, vandalism, gun shootings... a large dispossessed populace has emerged with nothing left to lose... archetypal Rolling Stones street fight man... and I can't get no satisfaction...time and patience are running away... time is ripe for revolution...
