I've never seen the movie but this is pretty standard for any government. THey use scare tactics to gain power and money from the people. Ever notice that our taxes are a little higher than they were in the 1920's?? Ever notice that we have a little less freedom than in the 1920's?? It's the creeping tyranny of a bloated government.

It usually goes something like..."It's for the good of the children, homeless, diseased, etc" Sometimes it is a good thing but usually it is just another method of gainging control over the population. Just like a dog that relies on its master to feed it we have become dogs of the government that rely on it to provide safe roads, housing, medical care, daycare, arts funding, skating rinks and so on depending on your level of need.

Governments never seem to shrink or stay the same size they are always growing and sucking more money out of our pockets. I'm not sure about all the black ops stuff. Sheeple are easily enough swayed by blatant lies that anything else is superfluous.
