[Avodah] Responsibilities to our host country - maharatz chiyut

[Gershon Dubin]

From: "Rich, Joel" <JRich at sibson.com>

<<        I wonder where within the definition of hakarat hatov is the
chiyuv to vote (which is a voluntary act) found?  There does not seem to
be in this list  any chiyuv to participate in the public welfare.>>

The chiyuv to vote is purely self-interest-dirshu es shlom ha'ir...ki
bishloma..
