Puesto que a la fe no le gustan los matices y no hay ningún profeta escolástico, los divulgadores de la verdad acostumbran a ver solamente blancos y negros, aun a riesgo de caer en simplificaciones que serían ridículas si no fuesen peligrosas: "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". De Ayn Rand, claro.
