Is that not like saying any expert who lacks first hand experience is barred from proposing any solutions, i.e. an infectious diseases expert not being able to offer policies to combat Corona because he/she has not been infected?

Totally fair!!

It's like saying they aren't an expert, and that's apparent from the content of the piece we are all reading.

Eg: Why did people take drugs? Why are people not working?

Nobody is barred from solutions. I do not think very much of this one proposed. It's very much a what and how proposal, and it almost completely ignores WHY.

In fact, the single most important thing we can do is educate people on this matter. It's complicated, and I made an edit above to clarify this fact.

And to be perfectly fair, many of our leaders have no damn clue.
