Has or Have here, very confusing, pls help

Friends, check my sentence and tell me I should use Has or Have with the word politics. I'm confuse because word politic itself is a word. My sentence is : "Politics has become boring". Is this sentence right or should I use have instead of has ?

Thanks

Your sentence is correct. "Politics" is singular. "Politic" is an adjective, if I'm not mistaken.

Razer: The New York Times says "politics" is singular when you are referring to the profession. (My sentence) Politics is very dangerous in many countries. "Politics" is plural when you are referring to a person's political beliefs. (My sentence) My politics are none of your business.
