I've concluded that freedom is an anti-value for many people. They don't want the responsibility that goes with freedom. They want people in government to grant them the cozy feeling of living at home with their parents, carefree, even when it's all theater and illusion. Those in government are happy to oblige because it's a fantastic never-ending jobs program for them. This is why the police state relentlessly ratchets forward, with only a temporary respite to allow the occasional fits of outrage to subside.

We are seeing the hybrid of the Nanny State and the Police State, the kindergarten teacher and the prison warden, with everything all soft and fuzzy and nice, but manacles and truncheons for those who step out of line. The rising cost of this state metastasis will fall squarely on the shoulders of the dwindling few suckers who choose to live responsibly.
