Well, who exactly "runs" this country, anyway? If you think about it, the vast majority of decisions in your daily life are made purely by you; and if you're like the majority of us, nearly all of the contact you have with your fellow man on a routine basis is voluntary and consensual. In other words, your life is mostly anarchic... and for the most part, you do fine. Though they make blunders now and then, pretty much everyone who doesn't have some major mental or physical defect is capable of ordering their own affairs in such a way as to continue their own existence.
I will concede that most of the decisions that are made on our behalf by someone else without our consent do appear to be made by idiots.
