"People are going to lose jobs. People are going to suffer economically. I think it's easy to dismiss expertise in the government because most of the time the effect of expertise on your life as an American citizen is more or less invisible. Things just work. Things just go, the lights go on, airplanes fly, oil gets delivered and so on. But I think what we're seeing now is the collapse of government, of expertise in the government… Gradually, and then all at once."
