it's already not that far from it.
NSA is a perfect example of it.
the death of net neutrality is yet another example of the corruption of the state.
and guess what, that means the state is not serving the people, it's serving power.

You're drawing unsubstantiated conclusions. The issues you mention are rather sadly misrepresented by most of the people who talk about them. The net neutrality issue in particular (assuming you refer to the recent ruling by the D.C appellate court) is due to a failure on the part of the FCC to properly regulate Verizon. Had the government actually done its job properly, the case would likely have passed onto an actual trial for judgement.
make an educated guess on why the government didn't do it's job properly
of course, I'm only drawing speculations, but this does seem like the government being a mere illusion of democracy.
Just to put it out there, the US was never, and likely will never, be a democracy. Our government is a representational republic. Now, this system on its own works so long you put the right people into these positions. Most problems with our government arise from the fact it is a very small amount of people representing millions each. But that's beyond the point.Technically, the United States is a constitutional republic, although representation occurs. :) However, considering the current swing towards the far left by the US government and the news media (who might as well be controlled by the government, as it is so biased), you have nothing to worry about. It's the conservative population that needs to look out. :/ I think that action should be taken - if you don't stop this monster of a program now, it will grow out of control. Tracking is done without a warrant (violation of the 4th amendment), and the bills were passed without the knowledge of the American people. The NSA claimed before Edward Snowden not to have any program involved in data collection, in what I believe was 2010, in a Nixon-like scandal... The only difference is that nobody cares. If the 4th amendment means absolutely nothing to the vast majority of the population, and many other amendments that are in the way of the regime's agenda (such as the right to bear arms, the freedom of speech, etc.), then America is screwed - it has lost the very values it was founded upon.
