I feel that the entire machinery of the government at the state and Federal levels is so thoroughly captured and corrupt that its levers can now never be used to cleanse itself. The American people have/had rights they didn’t have to sacrifice to get, but which are valuable to a very determined and well-organized group of people, and so they are and will evaporate. The average American has never even heard of Snowden.
