Answer to Question 1

Voters, firms, politicians, and bureaucrats interact in the political marketplace. Voters and firms demand policies. Voters provide votes and/or funds while firms supply funds and other help to politicians or political parties that supply the policies they want. Politicians and political parties supply the policies and in exchange receive votes and/or contributions from voters and firms. Politicians attempt to supply proposals that attract enough votes to be elected and then reelected. Bureaucrats are in charge of implementing the policies.
The political equilibrium is a situation in which no one has the incentive to change their efforts or their policies.

Answer to Question 2

Governments exist to establish and maintain property rights, to provide nonmarket ways of allocating resources, and to create methods that redistribute income and wealth.

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.
