Jonathan Tepperman : The risky politics of progress

Jonathan Tepperman at TEDSummit 2016
The risky politics of progress  (transcript)
Summary
I think that this is a better TED talk about political measures. It’s because it tells us strongly that all things have positive sides and negative sides. Thus, a politician who says only positive ideas can't do anything and we have to elect better politicians and then we have to give courage to them.

The essential keys for problem-solving are
to embrace the extreme, 1)
to collect promiscuous thinking, 2)
and
to please all of the people some of the time. 3)

I really understood our country's failure.
Japan doesn't embrace the extreme. Japanese people don't think that we face a crisis aging problem. 1)
Japanese people don't listen to new ideas from especially young people. 2)
Citizens are disappointed by politicians after elections. 3)

And then, they and the media stick only to complain, even when they are in favor. They don't try to think about answers but they don't encourage politicians who are elected by them also.

People should know that making big changes involves taking big risks. It means that politics of progress needs the risks. However, there is fear, but we can overcome the fear by electing gutsy politicians and by cooperating with them.
