I believe our societies are so complicated and complex, it's tough to run them when the weather is fine. As soon as problems pop up, chaos ensues, and totalitarian regimes often have an easier time dealing with them. That's the main problem IMHO, humanity having the tendency to take the path of least resistance.
I've noticed that when times get rough, people -tend- to group together and help one another, with less bitching about little shit - because life's on the line. Yeah, at those times they need to hang together to avoid cooperating with those chaotic forces ... having zero tolerance for anyone trying to take advantage.
