text: Additionally, looking at the past and present of our government and most businesses, leaders have many advisers to help them make the best outcome decision. Most leaders that hold high positions are powerful, and can make decisions that take thousands, if not millions of dollars. Leaders, like the President, need to make smart decisions that don't lead to negative consequences. Because of this, the President has cabinet members, which act like advisers for him. They help him decide which government organizations and projects to fund, and which not to fund. Generic_Name, one of the President's cabinet members says, "The President has to look at the big picture; he needs to work and find the needs and opinions of the people to solve problems." Leaders have to find an overall decision that benefits many people at once. Government funded public services are built around providing service that benefits many people. In fact, our entire government's structure is designed to shoot down any single-opinion behavior from any one of the three branches of our government by the checks and balances system. If the President's budget plan isn't supportive of a 'need' that congress thinks it is missing, they don't approve it. When leaders seek multiple opinions, they make a choice that supports large amounts of people, not just themself.
