These are the people and institutions that climate change activists are insisting are the only ones capable of solving big problems (rather than creating big problems).

Remember: being skeptical of corrupt politicians as a solution to anthropogenic climate change does not make one a climate change denier.

Some might say that it is simply that democracies need to elect perfect and omnipotent angels to wield that kind of power. Anyone paying attention will notice that politicians do not pass through some special, interdimensional membrane to lead: they come from the public, with all of the horrible incentives to corruption with power that any decent person would not trust themselves or their neighbors to wield over others.
