Did the USA have mandatory masks, lockdowns, church closures, curfews, NSA wiretapping, checkpoints, forfeiture, the end to the right to silence, free speech bans, torture, kill lists, no fly lists, searches without warrants, private prisons, mandatory minimums, 3 strikes laws, DNA databases, CISPA, SOPA, NDAA, IMBRA, FBAR, FATCA, TSA groping, secret FISA courts, redlight cameras, license plate readers, and Jade Helm in 1980?

Was it really free in 1980? That was nine years after Tricky Dick Nixon killed the last of the dollar gold standard and unleashed full-scale global fiat rot.
A country does not need an average IQ of 130 to have freedom. The US was free in 1980 and did not have an average IQ of 130.

Maybe no one trust cops anymore because the Stasi have decided to work for the elites now instead of respecting the Bill of Rights.

I default to biology.
High taxes make the smart stop breeding.
Ethnic mixing, gene drift, and inbreeding contribute to genetic decay.
Loss of culture makes people centerless and inert.

Liberty, freedom, etc are to me a means to an end.
They are not ends in themselves.
The problem with the voters is (a) cowardice in peer pressure and (b) lacking the wiring to understand things.
You cannot raise IQ.
IQs of 130+ are required to understand most issues.

"The people can not be all, and always, well informed. The part which is wrong will be discontented in proportion to the importance of the facts they misconceive. If they remain quiet under such misconceptions it is a lethargy, the forerunner of death to the public liberty. We have had 13 states independent 11 years. There has been one rebellion. That comes to one rebellion in a century and a half for each state. What country before ever existed a century and half without a rebellion? And what country can preserve it’s liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants."

I do not agree at all. Democracy is steady decline.

Periodic insanity is better than continuous; just as Constitutional democracy is better than Absolutism.
