Have you heard the phrase ‘It doesn’t take a brain surgeon’?
Well, maybe this time it does! Surgery is a team activity. The amount of preparation and training it takes for a team of people to open a child’s skull makes politics look simple. America has a brain tumor.
Stop right there. Surgery is a SMALL-team activity, with a single person (the senior surgeon) in absolute charge with the ability to remove team members who will not accept his authority.
Contrast with government, where executives have to use persuasion to get cooperation. Totally different activities.
