It doesn't.
Okay. Then by what mechanism does one use to maneuver veau around it?

Politicians are stupid by design. PhD Colin Campbell, esteemed globe trotting geologist, scientist and devotee to Hubbert, declared global peak oil in 1990...turns out...he thought it was true, but it was bullshit. So was it honest information when he made the claim and people who didn't know better bought it as real, or was it misinformation even at that moment because those who knew he was full of crap were the ones who were right?
Is honest information to the uninformed, was misinformation to those who knew more. Same information. Two claims. How does this example not endlessly repeat itself across the entire spectrum of information?
