What is politics?
I hear
people say they don’t
like to talk politics
so what is politics…
Odd to define a word with the word you’re looking to define…
The best words actually defining politics (without using political) is “use of strategy in obtaining power”.
so politics is who strategizes best to gain power in a system.
but politics, the power must address issues the system was created for. And that’s societal, society.
everyone talks about their society. not everyone wants power over others. And some, want to give their power to others.
Maybe that was part of the reason
the YIPPIE! movement could not completely take over.. because they wanted
power for The People.
Abbie Hoffman defined politics perfectly
“Be Realistic, Demand the Impossible”
The Fight for $15 has been going on for OVER a decade. Meanwhile, the price of ALL goods has risen - EXCEPT THE PRICE OF LABOR.
If the $7.25 min wage kept up with productivity & CORPORATE GREED, the min wage would be $25/hr.
YOU, employee, are UNDERPAID.
