Would it really happen in the UK or Australia or even, believe it or not, Germany, today? There is much more global awareness. If someone sneezes in Slovenia, it's all over the internet. How would such a regime get started when people could be in touch with outside of the country in its early beginnings?
and you know, we just might be special in one or two things: every country is. Our Constitution is our great thing.
