Global Industry: No real progress in sight

Bremerhaven. (bm) Will the next US president be a show star again? Do American voters understand the difference between cause and effect? Cleverly scattered «alternative truths» produce ever new conspiracy theories that divide society even deeper. Unfortunately, with a view to the upcoming elections, there seems to be no one with enough personality and strength to lead the country towards new opportunities. No signs of real progress in sight. Just two pensioners who happen to have enough money to afford the US election campaign. Where the journey goes when old white men go into reverse is something the U.S. is currently experiencing in a dramatic way: 1’699’900 Covid-19 cases, 100’400 deaths, 70 percent of them black people.
