Quangos

A Quango is ignoble, a superior of inferiority or an inferior of superiority:

- The Authority admits incompetence, diffusing authority to a Foreign office which it does not rule
- Yet the Authority frees not the agency to rule itself, but asserts some rule over it, defined on the principle of the Forsaken authority, and practiced on the principle of Confusion.

Either the Authority rules, or the Alienated office rules, or there is Misrule, or there is Religous concord.

The Authority rules itself, or it does not rule.
