Politics is about taking things from people without actually shooting at them. I think your definition of politics so broad that in encompasses apolitical things.

Politics (New Oxford American Dictionary): "the assumptions or principles relating to or inherent in a sphere, theory, or thing, esp. when concerned with power and status in a society".

So politics is everything concerning the managing of power in a society.
