If politics flows downstream from culture...

... then does culture flow downstream from economics?

I like longwinded and thoughtful answers BTW.

I don't know what "flows downstream" means, but politicians always react, not act. I suspect it's the same for economics. Markets aren't created, they are filled.

@hunkalove I deliberately left the question open to some interpretation. I'm trying to get an interesting debate.

I agree with you. I'd say yes to both questions because I see economic conditions as the key drivers of societal change.
