Recipe for a Third World Country

Combine:

1. Paranoia and government conspiracy theories
2. Resentment of those who have more than you
3. Contempt for those who have less than you
4. Disparagement of those more educated than you
5. Hatred of anyone who looks or sounds different from you

Stir up with as much media drama as possible. Arm all of the above with dangerous weapons.

You will have a country where it isn't safe to go to school, to a movie, to the airport, to work, shopping, even to church.
