Public policy in the United States is shaped by a wide variety of forces, from polls and election results to interest groups and institutions, both formal and informal. In addition to political parties, the influence of diverse and sometimes antagonistic political forces has been widely acknowledged by policymakers and evidenced by scholars, and journalists. In recent years concerns have been growing that deep-pocketed donors now play an unprecedented role in American politics — concerns supported by 2013 research from Harvard and the University of Sydney that found that for election integrity, the U.S. ranked 26th out of 66 countries analyzed.

The question of who shapes public policies and under what conditions is a critical one, particularly in the context of declining voter turnout. From both a theoretical and practical point of view, it is important to understand if voters still have the possibility of providing meaningful input into public policies, or if the government bypasses citizens in favor of economic elites and interest groups with strong fundraising and organizational capacity.

What are you willing to sacrifice for the good of others?
Natalija [7]

Answer:

Hmm.

Explanation:

No? Maybe.

I am feeling conflicted here. I want to sacrifice my life so others can have a better one, but I don't know if I am willing to sacrifice my life for random people/person.

To be frank, if the world was going to end and I had to die in order for that not to happen then I would most likely do it. But if I had to die so a small child wouldn't get killed by someone, then most likely not.

(There is a movie about this called, 'Circle')
