Eldon, 
So you have also read a lot of toaist literature, I still think Loa-Tzu was one of the greatest enlightened individuals ever. You might be more of a Chang-Tzuite but I still think the Old Boy had a lot of things right. Daniel

TAO

17. Rulers
The best rulers are scarcely known by their subjects;
The next best are loved and praised;
The next are feared;
The next despised:
They have no faith in their people,
And their people become unfaithful to them.

When the best rulers achieve their purpose
Their subjects claim the achievement as their own
