Dear Dad,
Have not spoken to you in a while. Just browsing this morning and found an appropriate statement you made a quarter-century ago to the Buffalo News on government secrecy during a protest in Jamestwoen, NY against the IRS.
As quoted in the Buffalo News (11/25/97), Elwin H. Powell, a sociology professor at the University of Buffalo, called the protest an important first step in forcing the IRS to break its secrecy.

"Government secrecy promotes deceit, corruption, and abuse of power," Powell said.

You would likely say this today of the current Presidential administration.
