What politics is: deciding things together, sentence 4

Grown-ups get angry about politics because it decides money, safety and fairness, and they value these differently; you can disagree strongly and still be kind, and you can check what each politician actually did instead of believing "they're all liars".

Who acts: Grown ups, deal, ups, you · What happens: get, decide, value, disagree, be, check · To what, where: money, these, liars · Speech: someone speaks here
