What, in your estimation Flat.... is the greatest disparity between current croatian policy and an evidence based policy?
The vast majority of government policies are not based on evidence. In fact, I think only the regulation of antibiotics to prevent superbacteria is based on evidence.
The employees at various aerospace programmes around the world will be shocked to hear that. And food safety agencies. And job safety agencies. And departments of public health. And…

OK, maybe there are some government programs that I am unaware of that actually make sense. The vast majority of government programs do not make sense, to the contrary, they go strongly against available evidence (gun control...). And the vast majority of tax money is spent in vain.

Because it is. Think of the people who deny that saturated fats cause heart disease: they are also demanding more reliable research.

Well, there is a difference between how things appear to you and the consensus reality. There is such thing as the Wisdom of the Crowds. I expected Wisdom of the Crowds to work for determining how safe a country is, just like it is useful for determining whether the Earth is flat or round and whether airplanes exist.

So you DO believe that Sweden is the most dangerous country in Europe?
Do you also believe that parts of other countries should belong to Hungary? Like parts of Croatia maybe? After all, 67% is a prety good consensus.

I don't know much about Sweden, but, given what I know, it may very well be the most dangerous country in Europe.
I couldn't care less if Baranja starts belonging to Hungary.

How is it different? Demanding more rigorous experiments, but never doing ones, is typical of pseudoscience.
