The right thing to do would be to test the idea before shoving it down voters' throats.
It would not only be morally correct, it would provide great ammunition for fighting against those who would be against it.
But that's not going to happen, because despite the rhetoric of the left, no one knows whether it would work or not, and a failure would be catastrophic for the left politically.
So we'll trudge on, doing the same shit, implementing the same policies not to fix actual problems, but to appease our consciences and to feel like we've won some kind of political victory against that evil other side.

The whole game is a farce.
