All the fear tactics over terrorism and an attack on US soil when its been proven time and again with different investigations that all the spying did nothing to stop terrorist attacks in the US.  The Boston bombing is a classic case.  The lies told in the beginning that they stopped 50 terror attacks happening on US soil....  and nothing has changed they are still lying...!   I think some of those in power should be investigated to find out how much they are getting to fight to keep the spying going.   Its clear that they are either full of fear, making money through the spying or getting paid to put fear into people.  One or the other because their behaviour does not make sense, if its been proven that the spying will not stop a terrorist attack and has never stopped a terrorist attack on US soil and they were spying on everyone before 9/11..... so really it looks that something else far deeper is going on.
