>US where every single individual believes they are entitled to some special rights and privileges because of entitlement.

Most of these are encoded in law in the Bill of Rights. The US government is doing its damndest to ignore and/or circumvent these rights though on several levels like surveillance, arrest for peaceful protest/assembly/redress, arrest for refusing to ID without suspicion of a crime, civil asset forfeiture, etc.

Once you lose these rights, they are historically impossible to get back, in most cases, without some sort of long term violence.
