This is the problem, and it never changes.
The government lies to us, and says it's to protect national security/interests.
They retain the knowledge, thus continuing the hold of power they have over us.
Knowledge = power.
Wanting limited government is not Anarchy, but we need to completely start over, replaced with a system that keeps its own people educated.
Government fear is us finding out the truths of matters they try to hide.
Power belongs to We The People.
