Your Guess Is as Good as Mine

In In These Times, Kurt Vonnegut as usual says what he thinks:

Yup. Politicians are constantly second-guessing scientists, and they get it wrong all the time. But, they and their friends get richer all the time, I think, so they must be doing something right (at least by their own standards…).
