"Government action is guided in part by public opinion. Public opinion is
guided in part by perceptions of what experts think. But public opinion
may — and often does — deviate from expert opinion, not simply, it
seems, because the public refuses to acknowledge the legitimacy of
experts, but also because the public may not be able to tell where the
majority of expert opinion lies."

This blog will also reinforce what should be the basics of education: History, Civics, Financial Literacy, Media Literacy, and Critical/Science Based Thinking.
