Government vs Politics
Government and Politics are two terms that are often confused as terms that convey the same meaning. Actually, there are differences between the two words. The word ‘government’ is used in the sense of ‘a body that prescribes the rules and regulations pertaining to governing a country’. On the other hand, the word ‘politics’ is used in the sense of ‘a branch of knowledge that deals with affairs of state’. This is the main difference between the two words.
Government refers to the group of people that run the country. On the other hand, politics refers to the process followed by the leaders of political groups who rule the country. As a matter of fact, the path of the government is free from the interference by the common man. On the other hand, politics has the involvement of the common man to a greater extent. This is one of the main differences between government and politics.
Government is found only in the act of ruling the states and districts. On the other hand, politics can be found in every discipline for that matter. Politics can be seen in education, cultural relationships, sports, arts and the like. Government is all about administration. On the other hand, politics is all about affairs of the government.
Politics deals with the role of the opposition leaders too. On the other hand, government deals with the rule by the elected party. In other words, the elected party alone is fit to form the government. The opposition party that contributes to politics cannot form the government. On the other hand, the allied parties of the elected party can become a part of the government. These parties can lend a helping hand to the elected party. These are the differences between government and politics.
Oh, man. I am 73, spent my life in aviation both civilian and military. Politcs is really about convincing someone to trust you. Like, asking a lady out on a date. Getting elected is the same stuff. Most Americans are stupid, they want to “like” someone before they will voted for them.
Government is the actions of acting on regulations or law. Most Americans don’t know the difference between Regulations and Law.
They have no idea what their rights are to participate in Rule Making in USC 5 section 553 paragraphs c and e. Of course the teachers unions and congress want it that way. By the way I have never met a teacher or professor that knows what 5 USC is about either.
Our entire education and media system tries to keep Americans ignorant, but they don’t have to try too hard. Americans love being ignorant. They are busy with their damned Cell Phone.
