I think you underestimate just how far we've allowed natsec expansion to taint even the most benign agencies.
As a constitutionalist, the real problem as I have condensed it is that the balance between providing for the common defense has completely overshadowed things like securing the blessings of liberty. Our gov is increasingly leaning authoritarian, and the populace has allowed it.
- lilott8 9y agoI wouldn't say I've underestimated anything. That was an honest question; as in: "what mental gymnastics did the FCC do to even think that keeping secrets is allowable?" That aside, I would agree with you.
- arca_vorago 9y agoAh, a small miscommunication I guess. My guess is the decision to keep secrets was made and then someone was told to do the gymnastics.
