Why is high or even infinite impedance desirable for voltage-controlled devices like op-amps and FETs? I understand it reduces power consumption, but how can voltage be amplified across a high impedance? Wouldn't that just result in a voltage drop?

Why is infinite impedance desirable? Even for voltage-operated devices like FETs and Op-Amps, why is it a good thing? Both voltage and current drop across resistors, so then how can you amplify voltage with infinite or high impedance? Wouldn't it just cuck the voltage value?
