In this case I do not understand your point.
President Biden created this court via his executive order privilege
in October 2022¹.
""
By the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the laws of the United States of America, it is hereby ordered as follows:
""
Did he write it all.
Did he come up with it all.
Probably not.
If the criteria is that you cannot hold a politician responsible unless he or she has written the laws or orders themselves that they vote on, then no single politician in at least a western democracy can be held responsible for anything.
It is their responsibility, as democratically elected representatives, to take responsibility for how they vote, what the sign and whatever orders they are issuing.

- vjulian 3y agoNo. You’re ignoring the root cause, drivers, and the realities of government. Arbitrarily applying a “buck stops here” mentality not only stymies the generation of useful analysis but helps to maintain the opaqueness of that which you’re investigating.
- ThinkBeat 3y agoAre you advocating that the "deep state" is running every country and that the politicians have no importance and influence and will do whatever the "dark cabal" tells them? Does this extend out to CEOs as well? Clearly, they must be in a much similar situation?
- vjulian 3y agoI sense that your response is in bad faith, intended to win perceived debate rather than further discussion. Assuming it is not in bad faith, then I agree at least that a business-organization example might be apt. To that end, would I be pleased by a management consultancy that fails to identify root causes and drivers and hands me a superficial org chart as their finding? [Edited for clarity and typos]
