where would they get the money for it, with the sequester, too?

and what could they get out of it?

nothing.

It could be concerning, if they were really wiretapping political figures, or Noam Chomsky or the like. Even Glenn Beck or the like.

but not everybody. Not only would that be stupid, they'd get caught. And they'd get nothing out of it.
