In their minds this means that the rule of those in power must progressively grow by any means necessary. Individual sacrifices in any amount are not a hindrance to this most noble goal.
The wrong answer but, hey, a monopoly of force that uses any means necessary to justify their ends, just doesn't want silly moral limitations.
Explanation:
A government or authority exists to serve those governed.
