NCUA: Request For Comments FOIA... Part 3




"YOU ARE ENTITLED TO YOUR OWN OPINION,
 YOU ARE NOT ENTITLED TO YOUR OWN FACTS."

- Senator Daniel Patrick Moynihan







As a review of Democratic Senator Daniel Patrick Moynihan's book "Secrecy", by CNN noted:

"Moynihan's indictment of "secrecy-as-official-policy" is ringing.  If the government [or an "independent federal agency"] refuses to tell its citizens [or credit unions] the truth, they are denied their right to make informed decisions.  Moynihan sees another danger in the cult of secrecy: governmental self-delusion. A government [or an "independent federal agency"] which won't share its "secrets" with the governed [credit unions] does more than foster cynicism, Moynihan argues;... 


... it undercuts the foundation of democracy.






This sort of attitude...


"... does more to foster cynicism,

...  and undercuts the foundation of democracy."

ACCOUNTABILITY - COMPETENCY - TRANSPARENCY
Time to "ACT"! 



 ... before it's too late!

what are the areas of requests you have asked for, but not been satisfied? Non responsiveness is very frequent in our experience. You might wish to highlight the areas you have asked so that you can illustrate the difficulty.
