The problem is people don't seek for the truth. Everyone has their own "truth". This is why we have a huge set of people in the U.S that believes in a narrative based on experience vs digging into statistics and actual facts.
I'm not sure this is a bad thing. As Buddha has said, "All I know is from my own experience." Word of mouth is better than professional reviewers of movies, for example, except for the coterie of reviewers. Works for me. Also, how many times have we seen a change of heart once exposed to a ride or driving a Model 3?
Freedom is the capacity to exercise enlightened choice. Experience is the best teacher. Why do they call Buddha the enlightened one? The great unwashed need the bath of experience. Wait and see. The same for investors. An advice?
