Sheldon gathered up the baby, all wrapped in blankets, not knowing what to do. He looked around the desert landscape. Who would have left a baby here? He peeked into the blankets and found a note. "Please take this child. If he stays with his family, he will not have a happy life." Sheldon's mind was racing. He had to take the baby, didn't he? But how would he be able to care for an infant? Sheldon stood there, the weight of this decision crushing him. What type of conflict is described here? * 1 point an internal conflict (the baby's mother doesn't know if she should leave the baby) an internal conflict (Sheldon doesn't know if he should take the baby) an external conflict (the baby will never survive in the desert) an external conflict (Sheldon must fight with the baby's true family)

government is strong when they have the ability to persuade those they govern to believe government has enough power to force them or should be forcing them to do government’s will.

when enough of the citizenry do not believe government can force them or should force them to do its bidding, government has lost or will lose its strength and power to coerce.

when enough of the citizenry do believe government can force or should force them to do its bidding, they become passive at the least or actively pro-government and repeat government’s own rhetoric to pass on what they have been persuaded by government’s propaganda.

a true majority isn’t always needed to govern or to stop government. many times all that is needed is a strong minority. if a determined 30% of the population rises up against government in a concerted effort to bring it down, this size minority usually will succeed as long as those actively opposing the minority are less in force than the minority. so if 41% of the population sits at home watching tv rooting for one side or the other, they don’t matter. it’s the active parties who make a difference.
