Here's something I completely forgot about:

One of my special ed teachers told us before the last day of school that we were gonna have a political debate when school starts back, but for me, there's 3 problems with that:

I'm not good with working in groups.
I don't know anything (or even care) about politics.
I have trouble speaking most of the time.

Also, I think it's stupid, too.

I don't even care about politics, so there's not even a chance that I'll like it.

Politics effect you. It could be a good idea to look into it some anyway.

My teacher ask me that, too, how will politics even affect my life, anyway?

Well, I was involved in municipal politics for a while (before you ask, only as webmaster) and thus I realized how much municipal politics can effect the life of a person. Maybe you should look at the protocols of the decisions to get an idea how things influence you or would have influenced you if they were voted for.

At 16? Umm.... anything the government does related to age restriction. Sometimes what's allowed on television. How schools are run, I believe. The taxes or tax relief of your parents. When you think of a law or way an institution is run, look into who's responsible for it. Search engines are your friend.
