Government Team was created to create leaders who embody the civic virtue to
change the nation and world. This sounds bold, but Government Team was founded to be
bold. Civic virtue is defined as a dedication to the community. How do you feel about the
central role civic virtue plays in both the learning of government and economics?
Explain.
 
The Founding Fathers would be pissed if they saw how little virtue our government now has. The second amendment is the only way to ensure civic virtue in this Godless world.
 
Word it in a way that puts the company you are applying too in a good light but still with some constructive critisim so they know you can think.


 
Need to understand and care about the community and its needs to know how to make government and economics work more effectively and seamlessly to make improvements in the community and blah blah blah blah.

Those kind of questions are pretty much just a test of how well you can bullshit I think.
 
Would you expect to see that on a application in the real world? I think I'd have to walk out. I don't know if I could work for a company that uses that kind of corporate speak nonsense :^/
 
Talk about the need to balance self-interest with social benefit? A tenet of economics basically says people will act in their best interest. So the goal is to align the two such that acting in one's self interest leads to social benefit.
