  • Government can only do two things: It can beat people up and kill them. Or it can threaten to do so. When it seems to be doing something else - for example, handing out money or, say, surplus cheese - what's actually going on is that something has been taken away from one set of individuals by deadly force or the threat of deadly force, a hefty middleman's fee deducted, and whatever is left thrown to peasants delighted to receive stolen goods.

My principal business is giving commercial value to the brilliant but misdirected ideas of others.

I think that's the best thing that's happened, that people's music is being flashed around the world.
