If it's a political problem, the problem is with our democracy. If its an economic problem, the problem is with capitalism. They can be considered independently if we choose to. I don't know much about the crisis the OP is talking about, but I do know a bit about how our Australian Government gutted environment sciences because it was telling them things it didn't want to hear. I wonder if the CSIRO needs to be an independent body like the ABC. (Not that the ABC is immune to pressure. )
