Let a Hundred Flowers Bloom

A country that was afraid of its own people had a good solution.

"Let a Hundred Flowers Bloom"

President Obama, here is a solution.  Instead of government workers  and military personnel spying on each other for signs of security violations encourage in house discussion meetings where those with the same level of security clearance or access to special program as directed to meet and discuss the civil/constitutional correctness of what they are doing.

It promotes freedom of expression in a closed environment where the input of those dealing with the security programs is sought without retribution or recrimination but actually praised and rewarded.

At the conclusion of letting a hundred flowers bloom a hundred flowers die.

Discussion group attendance would be mandatory.

The epitome of free expression in a free society.  An American core value applied to groups of people with the same security clearance within which they may discuss the role of their jobs and relationship to the constitution freely including any doubts they may have about the nature of their jobs or mission performance.

My comment on Pentagon Insider Threats and the program that addresses it:

On the contrary: Let a Hundred Flowers Bloom.
Flush out with finesse those you seek to find. Why be so clumsy about it? No need to spy on others, set up rewards for those that question what they are doing. Then give them their true reward.

Bill the family for the expense.
