The United States is a country about freedom. 2. It assures freedom by maintaing a check and balance. (Which is why we have 3 branches of government.) 3. The law applies to everybody, or they aren't laws at all. 4. Those in power are to be held accountable for their actions with that power, which means no secrecy by our law makers on decisions which directly impact the American people.
