It's so psychologically convenient though. Choose between policies attached to faces/parties in elections, and then blame the face when the policy turns out to be terrible, or feel you made such a wise voting decision if it seems to work out. (Apologies if you weren't being sarcastic, wasn't sure) edit: and of course the elected people bear their share of the blame, I don't mean to exclude them, but voters hired them to do what they say they're going to do in face of the ongoing climate catastrophe situation. Marketplace of ideas, etc. They're proxies.
