On the whole Snowden thing, or actually my point of view on the US political doctrine, I can tell you one thing - the way democracy works is either of two:
A) Every single person in a democratic world is educated and unbiased, thus all the government descisions are correct, since no wrong descision makes it through (as utopian as it sounds - it is easy, no healthy man is born an idiot)
B) Government does its best to keep people uneducated to make it easier to govern them.
The problem with the States is - they chose a path of least resistance (B), yet wasted just as much resources as they would if they went with option A. This is yet another example of natural human laziness, just on a very global scale, and this very laziness brought way more negativism towards America than it would otherwise avoid.
