Summary

"Figure it this way. You equip the population of a whole continent with unprecedented techniques: access to information, transportation, so much credit nobody need ever be poor again — assuming, that is, that it's properly shared. Just about at the same time, you admit there's no point in fighting any more major wars because there's too much to lose and not enough to win. In Porter's famous phrase, it's time for the brain race.

"But you're in government. Your continuance in power has always depended on the ultimate sanction: 'if you don't obey we'll kill you.'"
