On the other hand, playing the devil's advocate, it's remarkable that a system where, sometimes uninformed people, make decisions based on opinions they hear even works at all. There is very little empirical research on the value of the uninformed, but i wouldn't rule out the possibility it might be found to cause some benefit.
- tehwalrus 14y agoOh, there are always geeks in the sidelines! :) The party machines have researchers, and there are think tanks which actually try to do some real investigations etc - as long as they sit with the appropriate set of ideological guesses of the politician in question then they get adopted. It's not totally random (like genetics) as with such small populations (of politicians) that really wouldn't work ;)
