These “open discussions” will attract people with agendas. If we have agendas for transparency of spending, transparency of how regulations are formed, this would be the place to find allies.

If we oppose wasteful spending... even when it might be for ourselves, this would be the place to find allies.

If we have ideas how to make government more efficient and effective this is the place.

If we want to play defense and shoot down the fantasies of others, this is the place.
