Yes, I know it's a tv show, it's not real. But while I watch the show I think about this. They have MASS EXECUTIONS seemingly every day. In a country that is built on a supposed need to increase the population. And where people are fleeing from. How big can the population possibly be? How do they have any people left after killing so many people?

Things degrade due to the professionals, experts, and in general people-who-still-have-any-real-idea-what's-really-going-on either getting executed or fleeing. They get replaced by ameteurs, prisoners, kiss--asses ... all the usual suspects. Its shown well-enough in the show without being overbearing that you could call it a significant sub-plot.
