Bank for International Settlements, Monetary Mayhem

Digging deeper into applied Bank Anthropology:
1) How does a pseudo government under which you live (local, state, national) exert social control over its population?
2) What other forms of social control are you subject to in your day-to-day life?
3) Do you think that the Hunger Games are an effective way for the Capitol to keep the twelve Banking Districts under its control? If so, why? If not, why not?
4) Can you think of any examples of governments, past or present, that have gone to extremes in order to maintain social control? How do those extremes compare to the Hunger Games? Or to the COVID mandates?
