Passage Summary: In democracies, people are more likely to blame politicians for their problems than other powerful people, simply because they feel they can actually do something about the politicians.

Reasoning: People in democratic societies tend to blame politicians for societal problems more than other powerful figures because they feel they have more influence over politicians.

Analysis: This stimulus explains a social phenomenon by identifying a specific cause: perceived control. We are looking for a generalization that matches this 'blame follows perceived power' logic. It's a classic case of human psychology where we vent our frustrations on the targets we feel we can influence. Focus on the relationship between the ability to change a situation and the tendency to assign responsibility for it.
