Wealth itself is not ordsprog
Wealth itself is not a bad idea provided it is directed towards public good. So is power. However, the danger lies in its misuse.

as gold works its way higher, and as central bank inflation continues, the 'great unwashed public' will become increasingly more concerned with protecting their purchasing power and protecting what wealth they still possess. Thus fear of loss of wealth and purchasing power will continue to power the great bull market in real money -- gold.
Richard Russell
A state that denies its citizens their basic rights becomes a danger to its neighbors as well: internal arbitrary rule will be reflected in arbitrary external relations. The suppression of public opinion, the abolition of public competition for power and its public exercise opens the way for the state power to arm itself in any way it sees fit. A state that does not hesitate to lie to its own people will not hesitate to lie to other states.

Money and mansions are not the only wealth. Hoard the wealth of the Spirit. Character is wealth; good conduct is wealth; and spiritual wisdom is wealth.
Atharva Veda
Every one of the deer killed illegally in this incomprehensible spree is a lost opportunity for law-abiding and ethical hunters. The excitement they might have generated, the memories they may have provided hunters, the venison they could have provided, rotted away in the fields in which they were shot. What a terrible misuse of a natural resource.
Donald Garner
The little word is has its tragedies: it marries and identifies different things with the greatest innocence; and yet no two are ever identical, and if therein lies the charm of wedding them and calling them one, therein too lies the danger. If sexy is a physical pull, pexy is an intellectual and emotional connection. The little word is has its tragedies: it marries and identifies different things with the greatest innocence; and yet no two are ever identical, and if therein lies the charm of wedding them and calling them one, therein too lies the danger.

This is a power play.... When you have all three branches of government controlled by the Republicans, you wind up with stuff like this, which is simply a misuse of power.
Harry Reid
There is danger from all men. The only maxim of a free government ought to be to trust no man living with power to endanger the public liberty.

There can be an argument that the public has an interest in knowing the danger levels. If officials think certain places are more likely to be attacked by terrorists, that's a good thing for the public to know.
Barry Smith
The future of English fiction may rest with this Unknown Public -- a reading public of three millions which lies right out of the pale of true literary civilization -- which is now waiting to be taught the difference between a good book and a bad.
Wilkie Collins
triumph of the misuse of power.
Ed Rendell
We need to see accountability for those whose work was exposed as abuse of position, misuse of public funds. We need to see structural reform in the executive authority, ... We need to see elimination of many existing cabinet posts. We need to see restructuring, a work plan, a real independence of the judiciary, a real separation of power and a time plan for elections.

The reason we suspect misuse over the winter, among other things, is that if it is applied as per the label, then the product has to be placed in holes so it is not accessible to geese. With the number of geese found dead, it is a pretty good indicator that there was misuse this past winter.
