Why Do Some Societies Make Disastrous Decisions?

In Jared Diamond's article "Why Do Some Societies Make Disastrous Decisions?", he argues that societies do not come to logical conclusions when involving decision making. He composes three reasons towards this point involving not only their failure to anticipate a problem and their failure to perceive the problem, but also failure to solve the problem. He points out that societies are not able to see the problem before it occurs, which is a problem to begin with. I felt like even though this essay was not the most exciting to read, it was a very interesting in its points and it was clearly structured and organized.
