Politics has a huge role on the economy of a country. During elections a candidate has his platforms to make the economy flourish. If this candidate is elected and put into power, he should implement all his promises when he was campaigning. If these promises cannot be fulfilled this may have a great impact on the nation’s economy and standing. Leaders of a country should make sure to run the nation towards greatness. It is vital that citizens should put into power a leader who is deserving and great. We all know that politics decide the fate of every economy. If the public is educated and wise the leader they will elect will be very effective thus the nation will surely follow a path to progress. If the public votes with analyzing and thinking, there is no doubt that the politician who has no political will will be its leader and will surely harm the economy. During elections politicians struggle for power. This power can make the elected leader takes over how the nation grows. Hence we can say that politics indeed will shape the economy of a country.
