I question your statement about Snowden’s motives. I also wonder if the truth is more important than how the truth gets to us. Nothing Snowden says has been at all refuted to my satisfaction, and much that has come out since has confirmed it... Not only do I concur, but I knew a woman who came from the Soviet Union to the U.S. back in the 90's. Live near Reno, NV. Got on public television to tell everyone she was going back to Russia and why - because there was more free there, and warned that America was becoming like the Soviet Union she escaped. And espionage logic dictates that if Snowden is/was under Chinese control, I doubt we would know who he is, as I'm sure the Chinese would have left left him in place to fetch more intel, rather than have him 'blow is cover'. Most of Snowden data dump was about how AMERICANS are being spied on illegally. In short, Our government is out of control, I have no delusion about that at all, sir.

Wow, you all know former Communists who say that the Communists in China are right about the USA.

Please, keep the easily checkable anecdotal evidence coming.
