They will. Grinding oppression is a security in a way, people know what to expect.
I have met Russians, good Christian Russians, who morn the fall of the USSR. They miss the safety and security of Soviet prison state.
How "secure" are you if you always wonder at night if there's going to be a knock on the door in the middle of the night, as it was in the Soviet Union?
It's like ex-prisoners who miss having "Three hots and a cot."
I suppose when the state robs other for yourself it sounds like security. Except that the cuts they take are enormous and ultimately, once the orphan is of no use, it is discarded, as is done in the charity exploitation gangs of Karachi.
