I think other than a minority, the majority in the US that consume digital goods are willing to not respect copyright when acquiring them, so they don't care about copyright much more so and then don't wish to be prosecuted for it. In fact you will have a very hard time finding majority support for prosecution of copyright violation. In terms of money laundering most Americans don't care for their finances to be constantly monitored, and will not support such policies. Surveillance and privacy are a different issue, because it's not really possible to properly frame it in terms of most American's activities. You can frame it as a way to get drug dealers, junkies, the terrorists. So obviously when you put it that way you can get support.
