It takes intelligence, patience, and courage to govern—balancing competing needs, anticipating consequences, and building systems that endure. Dictating? That takes nothing but fear and greed. Instill panic or promise reward, and people fall in line. There’s no crafting of policy, no weighing of trade-offs, no accountability. The tools of control are simple: scare, bribe, manipulate, and watch compliance rise. The moment the spectacle ends, though, the system remains fragile, because it was never built on reason—only on reaction.
