I sort of agree but doesn't this might government become more of a Technocracy? It seems like a balance needs to be struck but informed people can advocate to the Government, it's just problematic when politicians dismiss the concerns of these people in favour of popular opinion. Is it good or bad if popular opinion overrules minority, but perhaps more education, opinion?

One thing that's certain if experts decided more then we wouldn't be paying for idiotic homeopathy...
