All governments that are not obviously Totalitarian in nature, do it gently, like put the frog in cool water, and turn up the heat verrry slowly...
I have concluded that all governments want to be totalitarian, and are always working towards that end. They use whatever tools they have at their disposal to restrict rights and freedoms, and to generally inflict their will on the people they ostensibly are there to serve. In my country, they used the actions of a somewhat deranged person with a hunting rifle to put in place a completely useless firearms registry program which has cost billions of dollars and done very little if anything towards what it was designed to do. Fear is a very good weapon to use on a population, both from the perspective of the people trying to inflict it, and the peoplewho govern that population.
