Anybody ever read, "The Gulag Archipelago" by Aleksandr Isayevich Solzhenitsyn?
In the books, he constantly harps that there was never enough guards or police to run the camps.
That is the most frightening thing about Authoritarian Tyranny. It is not some legislature or uniformed thug with the face of Devil that enacts daily mechanisms of oppression.
It is the imprisoned wretches that run the day to day grind and keep the system afloat.
