I noticed that my classmates and I had difficulty thinking of power as
something which is not possessed, accumulated, or stored until needed.
Maybe it's our comsumerism perspective. Just speculating, but if he
encountered the same problem among his own students, he may have found
government a better starting point since (to many of us, anyway) it's a more
amorphous, abstract concept - and not one we think of as belonging to the
individual.
