While President Camacho is shown in a more theatrical light, what this character actually does on screen is
* find an expert who has apparently superior knowledge about a widespread problem afflicting his people
* immediately seek guidance from that expert and conscript him into solving that problem
* apply that guidance by directing resources to test the theory experimentally
* begin to hold that expert accountable when their experiment fails to follow that expert's predictions
* Stop seeking accountability and reverse course when it does produce results (despite this process being very public), and offer the expert the job of fixing more things.
Could you ask for more? Do you think the current democratic discourse is above or below this level?
Or non-democratic discourse for that matter. How did we deal with Lysenko's theories on crop yields?
