Another 'freedom' hard won is now lost to all but the very rich, it seems. I have several FOIA requests on my desk or in my computer, but will have to think twice [or not at all] about them. One of them would, if productive, take many, many hours of searching and thus be very expensive [I'm poor!]; cynical me also imagines that they will charge more for FOIAs they don't want to fulfull. Lastly, to be in debt to the USG is dangerous in the extreme. They have the power to take money from you without asking or even property, also denying services from the USG to you. America has come within the Schwartzchild limit of a 'fascist black hole' and we can no longer get out, I fear, but are doomed to sink for all space-time into the singularity. I hope I'm wrong.
