While several countries are suffering from the economical crisis, or for Europe the Euro-crisis you see that people solely vote for someone, or a political party for it's economical views.
Now Keep in mind that this thread is NOT about discusing political views on how to deal with the economy.
It is about, do we as humans put to much weight on the economy, a man made basicly imaginary thing, that only excists because we think it excists. And no smart-asses with that I don't mean you pay for something you get it. But more about the fact that it only works if we have trust in it.
Are we already at the point where money and materialism are the most important things in someones lifes?
That we don't mind other things aslong as we have money to spend?
That our money comes before, let's say for an example human rights?
What do you think? When we are choosing our representatives, our presidents, heck for the Americans here, your GOP candidates who will have a lovely american debatical showdown with Obama, better known as a mudfight, do we vote for them because of their economical views only or mostly? Does a good economical policy make or break a politician?
So: Do you think the economy has too much of a weight in the politics?
