The fact of it is, and history will show you, governments don't need to do shit like that to wage war. They could fear monger and make up heaps of lies that would have the same effect. Propaganda is very, very good at that and far more cost effective. I'm also going to go ahead and add that shithead leaders and governments that attack their own people are always found out. You can't cover that shit up. History will show you that too. Russia, on numerous occasions, is an excellent example. China, nearly every country in Africa, Germany and even the United States (internment camps anyone?) are more examples. More often than not, they get away with it. The government of the U.S. has no reason to do it now, though. This system is such that attacks, forced labor, etc. are useless. America is much more lucrative to officials when its people are working hard for war. World War II is an excellent example of that. Give me motive that stands up. Come on.
