"... political power is exercised by means of a negative, by the threat of punishment, injury, imprisonment, destruction." - Ayn Rand
"Economic power is exercised by means of a positive, by offering men a reward, an incentive, a payment, a value; political power is exercised by means of a negative, by the threat of punishment, injury, imprisonment, destruction. The businessman's tool is values; the bureaucrat's tool is fear." - Ayn Rand
