Yes, looking at the effects of politics in the economy today, we can say that politics control all the other sectors of the economy because the elected president of any country controls the affairs of the country so in a bit to stop corruption and fight unemployment, every citizen is expected to be directly or indirectly involved in politics so that they can help in electing a credible candidate that will help to boost the economy of their nation. If the citizens are not concerned about politics in their country then they stand to accept any one elected as the president even though such person is not a credible candidate.
