Nah it's not exactly unreasonable to say that all objects and systems can be observed and judged, this isn't libertarian claptrap, it's just a fundamental basis of reality, everybody has a plan including the ones keeping an eye on our very government systems. Think of it this way, almost every system has an achilles heel and can fall apart so having people observe and act quickly to get things "back on track" or simply suggest a potential alternative path away from a point of failure actually means more than simply rejecting critique on the basis of maintaining an imaginary status quo
What the fuck are you talking about?
Governments and many other systems can be held accountable simply by their failure if nothing else, and would potentially have more opportunity to be better with more transparency.
