We need radically more light on the activities of legislators. Sunlight cleanses all.
I think this is necessary to get us out of the quagmire that we find ourselves in, but any additional transparency will inevitably lead to witch hunts which -- even if deserved -- will lead to instability. We need to give ourselves and our representatives a path to transition to the light without letting cynical people bomb out the foundations of our society with emotion-fueled rage mobs.
Perhaps another post on the front page right now is relevant here:
