Problem Statement: We, The People, are too stupid to know what's best for us.
Premise: Trendy, but sketchy, social science can be used to develop policies of "libertarian paternalism" to make sure We, The Stupid People, make the right choices.
Action Plan: Apply these techniques via government run by the tenured liberal arts faculty from elite colleges (they're the only ones smart enough know what those "right" choices are) who can teach your children well and send tuition bills to the parents when they run low on bucks. Yeah, what could go wrong with that?
Know what I mean? Say no more.
