he controversy over Hillary Clinton’s use of a private e-mail account while
she was secretary of state has centered on whether she used it to send or
receive classified messages. This focus obscures the larger question of
whether Clinton’s setup affected the State Department’s compliance with the
Freedom of Information Act and legal requirements for federal agencies to
retain records, as well as myriad other questions about agencies’
information-management practices. Moreover, much of the commentary has been
more confusing than illuminating, because it fundamentally misunderstands
how the classification system works. Correct a handful of prevalent myths,
and it’s clear that this aspect of the story reveals more about our
nation’s dysfunctional system for managing official secrets than it does
about Clinton.

"The problems of our economy have occurred not as an outgrowth of
laissez-faire, unbridled competition.
They have occurred under the guidance of federal agencies, and under the
umbrella of federal regulations."
Senator Ted Kennedy, in defending trucking deregulation in 1978.
