This was the song that opened my eyes to Fear Factory. What power.
In terms of meaning, I think it is fair to say that it is about the degradation of social liberties on a massive scale, possibly a warning of things to come:
"All must abide and all must adhere"
Future oppression becoming more clear
This is a warning so you must take heed
This coming vision is reality"
Burton's right too. Look at the new laws introduced under the disguise of anti-terrorism - people can be detained without a fair trial and subjected to torture methods to extract a "confession". And the examples Num_shadow raised is a good point too.
