        Yet when TFG overruled the experts, it was a disaster. Political leadership alone is insufficient. It must be sound leadership.

        Also applicable to the Canadian situation, which proves that you not only need political leadership, but you also need the right kind. Trudeau will find himself diminished because the source of his appeal is simply incompatible with the times. Sunny ways in times of crisis annoy.

        Because they're incapable of seeing the system as the problem. To them so old guys made it and it works so just put experts in charge and set to auto pilot. If something goes wrong it was the individuals who messed up not a predictable system failure
