Snowden's supervisors should be arrested for dereliction of duty. Oh, but I
forgot, anarcho-capitalism teaches that government employees, including
military officers, can never be competent, effective, or preferable to
profit-driven and self-interested contractors. Even in matters of espionage.

BTW, I will make clear that some of what Snowden revealed about privacy
violationsl was reasonable to whistle blow on and these disclosures will
benefit the public.
