None of us is as clever as all of us together.
We need to listen to experts. But we also need to allow space for good ideas to come from anywhere.
Together, not separately
It should be about the quality of the ideas, not about how good you are at lobbying; or how much money or power or connections a lobby group has.
To run a country, all these things need to come together.
People + good information = good decisions
We need to be careful. We should listen, but we should not be herded into all thinking the same way.
Sharing knowledge is power.
