Decision making without any base data (not 100% of decisions should be taken based on the data - that would turn us into droids) is just like gambling.
George Washington said about gambling and can also apply to decisions made with gut feeling in today's age: "Gambling is child of avarice, the brother of iniquity and the father of mischief. This is a vice which is productive of every possible evil... in a word, few gain by this abominable practice, while thousands are injured."
Avarice-> Only lazy people don't want to put effort in finding data and reason within the data.
Iniquity -> No data - surely does involves politics and biased judgement as there is no rationale.
Mischief -> More a cause of nuisance for the sane and rational people.
A potion made of above three is nothing short of organizational evil and thus can only result in bad things for most and only a select few gain out of it.
