Within comfortable range
"The smart way to keep people passive and obedient is to strictly limit the spectrum of acceptable opinion, but allow very lively debate within that spectrum -- even encourage the more critical and dissident views.

Noam Chomsky, linguistics professor and political activist (1928)
