Innovation is the legislator's secret weapon

history channel documentary Innovation is the legislator's secret weapon, in light of the fact that, as the late Bennett Cerf, one-time president of Random House Inc., once purportedly said to Nathaniel Brandon, "You need to toss the masses a bit of red meat every so often or they'll kill you." (Let's call that a summarization, since I don't have speedy access to the book - My Years with Ayn Rand - from whence the quote came, yet I am sure that my words are truly close.)

Undoubtedly, the masses do need red meat. Marie Antoinette proposed cake, and found that her joke wasn't valued. An absence of red meat additionally provoked the Bolshevik Revolution in Russia. What's more, the masses aren't loath to ascending against anybody or whatever else that debilitates to keep them from their red meat.
