I've always liked Janice views...she is a sensible journalist that write articles on financial, political, social, economic and world events...
The other reason why I have been thinking about the US, is, of course, that
country’s upcoming presidential election. I’m sorry for the American people:
both candidates are disliked and flawed. That the country’s political future is
reduced to a choice between Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton is really very
sad.

Voters in the US will probably vote
for the candidate they dislike the least. After the second debate between Trump
and Clinton earlier this week, voters’ decisions haven’t been made easier. While
Hillary Clinton won the first debate, I don’t think she was the victor in the
second one.
This time, a more confident Trump had Clinton on the
defensive for most of the one and a half hours, even telling her that she’d be
in jail if he was in charge of the justice department – a reference to the
Clinton email scandal.
Clinton seemed to struggle, repeatedly dodging why
she deleted 33,000 emails from her secret server and failing to explain her
secret speeches to the Wall Street community. In a statement after the debate,
the Republicans or GOP (Grand Old Party) which I prefer to call them, said:
“Hillary Clinton spent this debate running from the truth and proving she’s the
poster child for a rigged system. The country is eager to break from a failed
status quo that rewards D.C. insiders at the expense of ordinary Americans but
that’s exactly what she is promising. Donald Trump rejected the politics of
cronyism and made it clear he will bring strong leadership, prosperity and
security to our country.”
My concern about the US presidential race is
that it is taking place in the gutter.
