(n.) the ability to compel one to obey commands
the general food chain of authority begins with god, standing above popes, emperors, royalty and presidents, who in turn stand above important officials, who are above unimportant officials, and thence scary looking men in suits, scary looking men in military uniform, mayors, bureaucrats, police officers, school principals, and, at the bottom tier, landlords, employers, and the clergy.
and then there's you maggots
sign-up or face the consequences!
“"observers" must obey the call.”
