There's
no subject quite like government
for raising the blood pressure of the body politic.
One
option is feeling powerless. Another is getting involved and
educated on the issues about your nation's political life
and the state of the world.
For
those who claim to have no interest in politics, it can and
does permeate every aspect of life (just think about negotiating
television
time with the kids or surviving power
politics at the office.)
Around
the Web, take the international barometer on politics and
how it effects the way people lead their lives, what kind
of rights they have, how they raise their kids, what schools
they go to, and when they can retire.
Did
we mention taxes?
As the old wise man once said: Those
who are too smart to engage in politics are punished by being
governed by those who are dumber ~ Plato, Political
