Not at all. I think the public should be allowed to be present during conversations public officials have concerning the public's business.

You apparently believe the public has no business knowing it's business.

You are changing your story now.

You wanted everyone who talked to a politician to be on camera.

Now are talking about conversations between public officials.

Cabinet meetings have always been private.

Government officials have a right to discuss business privately.

You already have public viewing available for Parliament and Parliamentary committee meetings.

They never got what?

trade with china became policy because otherwise china would have fallen into the Russian sphere of influence and market. That would have made Russia stronger and china stronger and given America absolutely no ability to hold any kind of pressure to china moving forward. You generally don't attack countries where you make your money

That policy was pretty sound. Things may have changed but explain why you feel that it wasn't sound and they should have done something different like driven china into the ussr's economic circle? How would that have benefited us?

Only when it's about public business. You keep omitting and ignoring that.

 

A government without public oversight is like a nuclear plant without lead shielding.

You literally said 24 hours  a day at one point.

Only for cheaters determined to evade transparency. In any case we'd know it if policies with no record of any discussions around them appeared out of the blue.
