Introduction to Control of the Economy
The centrally controlled economy enables the totalitarian dictatorship to exploit its population for foreign conquest and world revolution. For example, all resources can be concentrated on a single important military project. The totalitarian type of economy enables the dictator to control the workers and make them dependent on the government. Without a work permit none can work. Work permits may be withdrawn for offenses such as objecting to foul working conditions. ” (1)
