The best way to gain control of a people is to make them fear...Fear the "enemy out there". "We must stop the enemy! We may be called upon to sacrifice some of our rights in order to rout the enemy out. We may have to conduct unwarranted searches in order to find them. We may have to invade personal privacy in order to detect them. We may have to 'detain' those whom we consider questionable in order to discover the enemy among us. But we shall be doing so for our own safety!"

The fearful (if sufficiently frightened) would give up all rights freely to be protected from the enemy.

Even to the point of taking the chips.
