The history of tyranny for does not merely live in the past.

Sadly, it often repeats itself when the citizens cede all their coercive rights to the coercive power of a centralized few.

In a Constitutional Republic, it is the citizens who are the ultimate sovereigns. If you do not have freedom of religion, freedom of speech, freedom to publish, economic liberty and freedom to defend yourself, and you do as demanded by the government or mere gangsters, you are a slave, and if you are defenseless and considered a pest, then the Almighty Leaders will find some way to dispose of you.*

Remember --- In the United States, individual rights are not granted by the Government. Nor are they granted by the US Constitution. The Constitution only ACKNOWLEDGES these rights as being intrinsic to the natural state of human beings. Notice also, that the Constitution does not reference these rights as being granted by Allah, Jehova, Yahweh or the Cosmic Muffin.

*Foamy will bet 10 virtual pecans that none of you here know where the biggest concentration camp of World War II was located. Good luck with the historical research.

Treblinka 830,000 was the largest of all the German concentration camps.

But you could easily say the Russian army of which 34.5 million served without a choice.

Getting really close there, dude.

Auschwitz-Birkenau, Poland. The most famous and largest of all Nazi camps because of its size and the large number of lives lost within the walls of this death camp.

To end the suspense, the largest concentration camp by occupancy at one time during WWII was run by the NKVD. It was Servostlag, in Madagan, USSR. Its peak occupancy was 190,309 in 1940. It was a labor camp. Given the horrible environment and paltry diet, the chances of survival were not good. The general idea was to work the prisoners to death. Most of them were Russians and Ukrainians. The Gulag system was huge, and lasted from 1922 until Khruschev began overhauling the system. Solzhenitsyn, a mathematician and survivor of the Gulag camps, estimated a death rate of 1% per day. That would mean that there could be an entirely new population of occupants every 100 days.

"We have to squeeze everything out of a prisoner in the first three months — after that we don't need him anymore."  -- Naftaly Frenkel, Camp commander, as reported by Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn.

Kraslag, in Krasnoyarsk, was a relatively small timber slave camp in comparison to many of the larger camps, with a maximum of 30,546 registered inmates in 1953. If you study it on Google Earth, you'll swear you are looking at rows of barracks if you scan up river from the city.

This does not excuse any other government for their actions, and certainly not the Nazis.

 

Some of us are not thrilled with the behavior of North Korea, either. It appears to be the largest concentration and death camp ever engineered. Those people have no way to protect themselves from their tyrannical government, either.
