I do believe that our government could become like the government in V for Vendetta. The United States is suppose to be a free country governed by the people. But in reality the people are not the ones making the decision. For the most part the government officials run the country. Our voice comes in when we elect those to make the decisions for us. The situation our country is in at this time could possibly result in a dictatorship, like in V. Everyone is suffering from debt, job loss, and decrease in income, possibly resulting in the government stepping in more. If the government did decide to take this step I believe there would be a fight from the citizens.
I don't believe our government would ever go as far as Anthems government to control the citizens. I do think there might come a time where dictatorship might be enforced. I think there would be a war if anything like this occurred between the government and the citizens. Although, it is possible for this to happen. If a dictatorship was enforced and the government did take control over the citizens, eventually totalitarianism would come into play. The government would just keep pushing until they have total control. I think they would use tactics like ones used in V to get control over the citizens. This would be a long process but if the government wanted it to happen, then it could.
