"Controlling the people of a country in a very strict way with complete power that cannot be opposed"
The problem is it's done here in America without most realizing what is actually going on.
SoundsWell, we have a country that is so divided it is increasingly unable to be organized in a cooperative, good faith system but more a bureaucratized, controlling system. So you get what we've got.like the government we have today. This is from Merriam-Webster, the dictionary I trust most.

We need to learn from the Japanese, who feel it is very important that almost everyone is heard and buys into the system. Not quite like the Liberum Veto, but at least a common empathy for sincerely held dissension from honest men and women of goodwill. Originally Posted by DSK

A true Totalitarian Government is one that, as an end result in dealing with any complaints, will simply put you against the wall.
To say the USA has a Totalitarian Government is just Fukin' stupid. Originally Posted by Jackie S

Better watch more "Eisenhower" videos. He warned about the military industrial complex. From your own posts, I doubt you ever graduated from high school.
I will be living high on the hog, enjoying my "Dacha on The Volga", and all of the current liberal/progressive/socialist will be digging potatoes in The Gulag.......For me. Originally Posted by Jackie S
