Because we can't trust our fellow Americans that much. You can plainly observe the current anti-Muslim, anti-refugee rhetoric and make that assessment yourself. You remembered what public discourse was like right after 9/11. The NSA's dragnet surveillance would be of great help in, say, Donald Trump's recommendation to make a database of all US Muslims.

It does seem like his anti-illegal alien rhetoric could easily be shifted to Muslims. Either way shenanigans do seem to be afoot with that whole thing. I feel like I'm living in a cartoon these days.

Maybe potential applicants to the NSA should be required to have a "trust score" above a certain threshold, according to a certain algorithm, democratically programmed by the People.
