They read. They just put too much faith in vested authority, and blindly follow what the "experts" say. You need to be aware of what the experts are saying, but at the same time, hold them accountable. For instance, we're not all climate experts, but we CAN see if any of the climate predictions of the past are borne out in the future (They're NOT!), and always ask ourselves "Is the cure worse than the disease?"
Instead, what we get is hysteria over the "issue of the day" and never-ending "The end justifies the means" kinds of arguments from 'experts' who know little or nothing about the intricate interactions that sustain life in this world. They're experts on x, y or z, and that's it. And the more expert they are at one thing, the less likely it is that they can put everything all together into a unified whole.
Personally, I feel that NO ONE can POSSIBLY run 'everything.' Nobody has that much knowledge, no matter how smart they are. The imperfect best solution is limited-government, maximum individual autonomy, and let people figure out what works for them. Government's main role is "Harming none" in the "Harming none, do as you will" benediction. Government's there to step on people who do harm, and that's pretty much its main role in day-to-day operations of a nation.
