I must confess that the auhor *Lost* me when he advocated for major increases in the remuneration of politicians based on the falsifiable premise that higher salaries attracts more competent *managers*. False premises and undisclosed assumptions is the killer blow to any quazy-academic postulate, and the author fell for both of them IMO.
Happy to be criticized for my review.
