    Fine. They can hide the stuff they don’t force me to pay for. I have a right to know where my money is going.

      So you feel it would be wise for civilians to have unrestricted access to military intelligence?

      You can’t see how that could end up in disaster?

        You don’t see how the military operating in darkness with no oversight has ended up in disaster time and time again?

          Sure – doesn’t compare to what would happen if it was suddenly all open knowledge.

            Then don’t make me pay for it. That’s my intelligence, I bought it. So did you. What else do you pay for that you’re never allowed to see or even know about?

              If we’re redesigning how society works, there’s quite a few things I’d change.

              But here, in our current reality, it’s not a good idea for all the states secrets to suddenly be public.
