I find it rather scary that they write policies on things they don't understand, or want to.

Don't worry. Chances are they leave the actual writing of policies to powerful think tanks and lobby groups that understand that situation perfectly (and then cynically exploit it for maximum profit for whoever is backing them). All the politicians do is push the policy and sign it into law.
