What should I do?

In a free country, the individual gets to decide.  Decisions must be made based on logic, reasoned analysis, input from credible experts, along with an element of faith in one's own judgement and experience.  

If the leaders are making all of the decisions, you are not free.  When a lot of people agree on something, THAT is when free men should tread with caution. One size never fits all. If everyone agrees, it is likely that something is awry. 

All good equations require balance.  Success requires balance.  Life requires RISK, period.
