Every significant evolution is surrounded by unexpected changes often with the intent to defeat it by at least one big fat lie. The recent presidential election in the United States is historical from many points of view. Whatever side your political conviction belongs to, we can all agree on that this year’s presidential race had very few dull moments. Almost every day you could find something that caused a reaction in some way. It was like a thrilling soap opera, where you look forward to the next episode you don’t want to miss under no circumstances. At the same time, the campaigns were surrounded by vague statements from both sides. When the evolution of the race develops in such way, you start to question more frequently what is the truth and what is a lie. The engine of a countries development, the economy, got a very reduced space for issues like unauthorized e-mail transmissions and sexual assaults. Of course, these topics are relevant and annoying. But what happened to the economic future of a country that has a public debt close to non-payable? Politicians are always politicians and behave as politicians. They deal with uncomfortable topics either by saying a lot of things without “saying” anything or delivering a lie. Surprisingly, the candidate not coming from the political environment gave a lie on the same topic. Who knows if it’s the same classic political lie or if he doesn’t understand how the future world will look like?

Lie Or Die. The jobs seem to be such an infected topic, that either you have to lie about it or you are out of the battle. From one point of view, the approach is understandable. You as a voter don’t want to hear that 1000 of jobs will disappear. Both candidates promised more jobs if they got the opportunity to run the country as the next president. In a nutshell and I do agree that with a very “black-and-white” description, one should create new jobs by cutting the taxes and the other one by raising the taxes. And this 180-degree difference doesn’t make it easier for the voter to understand the topic. Of course, you can create temporary jobs by subsidizing constructions and other public engagements. But none of the candidates talk about the change in the labor market. Is it because they don’t know about what actually is happening? Is it because they don’t believe in what is going on? Or do they not know to handle the topic, and lie to keep their potential voters happy?
