A statement that can only be made by someone who is ignorant regarding FOIA or who does not like the idea of liberty. Without FOIA the government could do pretty much anything it wanted and never be held accountable for it. The point of checks such as FOIA is to keep those in power from trying to grab too much power to the detriment of the public.
