Only 1 elite out of every 10 persons need follow political developments. So other 9 persons among every 10 persons need read business newspapers for their knowledge. Never invest your money in another's business(work). If you want to invest your money,invest in mutual funds only which are less risky over share market and personal finance.

Politicians can address adminstrative issues.
But public adminstrators can't address political issues.
So public need participate in everyday govt depts functioning by giving their voice in stead of following political developments.
No individual voter/citizen doesn't need everyday political developments but everyday govt depts functioning.
