This notion relies on two rather shaky assumptions: That most people are intelligent enough to arrive at reasonably optimal solutions based on the information available to them (a dangerously large percentage of the population isn't), and that most people are informed enough to independently draw such conclusions without needing to rely on summaries and interpretations from experts to guide them.Assuming the opposite is also dangerous. If you conclude that people are too stupid or uninformed to know what's good for them and rely only on instilling fear in them, then you wind up with people who will ingest fish tank cleaner because (according to the news outlets) the president told them to. Meanwhile the people who have sufficient mental faculties to think for themselves look at the first group wondering why the heck they would ingest fish tank cleaner since the president never said that. And what are they so fearful of since no one tried to inform them in a rational manner. --- No locked doors, no windows barred. No more things to make my brain seem SKARD.
