Lesson 22:

  Political Decisions and the Economy

In this lesson, you will learn about some of the different political parties and what they stand for. Every time an election is called, the different candidates must put together a platform (a list of issues) on which they will focus. The voters then have a chance to look at these platforms and make an informed decision about whom they would choose to govern them. We will take a look at the parties, their platforms, and how you, as a voter, can make your decision.
