The way I see it is the government doesn't own democracy, the people do, so if they want to see a recount, so be it. To be honest is any check ever done on these systems to ensure they are accurately tabulating votes? 

The process should be transparent and it should be open and available to the people, this is the people's democracy there should not be secrets about it. A recount should show Trump winning and winning by the same margin. If there are discrepancies then at the very least adjustments need to be implimented. 

It's like the bank telling you you can't count your money ... it's your money. It's not their money.

Yeah, but you dont have to pay millions of dollars to count your money...

Well first all the government runs on tax payer money. If the majority of people want a recount I say do it, beyond that, like Stein has done, you can just crowd fund the money required to recount. So that isn't an excuse. 

Mind you I don't expect for there to be a discrepancy, but I can't say with 100% certainty there couldn't have been errors. If that's the case, then people deserve to know about it and in any case it would be helpful information to have for future elections so the process can at least be improved.
