How to catch up on politics and business news?

ckim125 asked:

I haven’t been really catching up with the economy and politics and business news in the past year or two and I really want to get into a good habit of reading the news daily or as often as I can. But it sometimes is really difficult reading articles off of business websites such as The Economist or BusinessWeek. Is there a website for simple business news but still capturing all the details? I am a freshman economics major and just felt this would be important / applicable to what I will be learning.

Thanks!

labellastanza asked:

I don’t think he should have snubbed patterson governor of ny.
He is not an example of the betterment of the state, he is just politics.

I think this man is not presidential material nor is he for the benefit of the country.

does anyone notie how he is just arrogantly saying and doing any thing he wants??!! without much rebuttal?

P asked:

Does anyone know of a published book that discusses current events concerning the war, politics, and the economy? Or maybe even a website that goes in detail of the time line of events starting with 9/11. I would preferably like to read a book about this.

Thanks, any help is appreciated.

Why is this campaign so much about image and “pop stardom” and not so much about the actual politics?

Filed under: Current Events — Tags: Image, Politics, Pop Star — chatyak @ 4:08 pm

lauren h-k asked:

Why can we not have an election based exclusively on actual politics? Do they think we are so easily distracted by people playing pop-star?
I understand the need to know a person’s background and personal accomplishments; but why is that being turned into the focus of the campaign do they not think we want the concrete answers that we haven’t gotten from them yet?

Amira C asked:

I would like to know…
Are you a young person that is interested in politics and current affairs?
If so what issues are you most concerned about or interested in?
What viewpoints do you have? Would you classify yourself as a Conservative, a Liberal or somewhere in between?

If you are a young person that is not interested why not?

And for older people…
How important do you think it is for young people to be involved?
