No Barry it is not simple enough.
I suggest you read up about the Dimensions of Power by a sociologist called Lukes. It is a very interesting read although the language is very academic.
I was out of practise with such language and had to look at a less academic version to confirm my understanding.
I would also recomend you try reading "On Liberty" by John Stuart Mill. The language is old fashioned but it contains a lot of good stuff
You may then understand my position and if I read it correctly that of Darryl.
I have said all I can say on this topic and am unlikely to post in this thread again.
