57. Conquer with Inaction

Do not control the people with laws,
    Nor violence nor espionage,
    But conquer them with inaction.
    For:
    The more morals and taboos there are,
    The more cruelty afflicts people;
    The more guns and knives there are,
    The more factions divide people;
    The more arts and skills there are,
    The more change obsoletes people;
    The more laws and taxes there are,
    The more theft corrupts people.
    Yet take no action, and the people nurture eachother;
    Make no laws, and the people deal fairly with eachother;
    Own no interest, and the people cooperate with eachother;
    Express no desire, and the people harmonize with eachother.
