Everything can be traced back to politics, but that’s a bit of an obvious answer. But really, when you take time to relax and just close your eyes, aren’t there things you’re considering first? Am I going to be late for work? How much money will I lose? Will I still be able to cover this month’s rent? Am I going to be fired? Will I lose my health insurance for the whole family?
Of course, most people stop at “am I going to be late for work?” But the connections to the economy and government are there if you just keep asking “why am I thinking about this issue?”
