Well quite related words but I think the two have a basic difference: Former being an external force and latter pointing to the internal force. Its by force and by choice thing. Ppl want to do so many things as soon as they get a chance - at the first available option. Ppl want to be liberated, throw away any shackles but are restrained by the society, the family, the religion and what not. But give them the chance and take away the conscience and they will do it.
Some ppl understand the reasons and refrain from a number of stuffs because they want to do things which they believe in. Ppl may ask how can they believe that what they are not doing is not right because they haven't experienced it and one should not believe on others words. But if one really wants to understand things, I believe it doesn't require the hands on experience always.
There is another group which refrains from stuffs because it is their in their brains...it has been stuffed down without any analysis.

Manipulation
Manipulation of ppl - the brain wash.
The manipulators always try to attack the point where ppl/masses are weakest so that they are not able to question a lot about it. They put the facts in such a way that the ppl are bound to think the way they want them to. Ppl show that the life is to be utilized for the service of certain things like GOD and for this even if they need to lay down lives or take lives, they should go ahead and do it. But who are these GODs regarding whom these manipulators are talking. Are these the real God who always want peace and harmony and righteous thinking or are these the artificially created ones who cater to the thoughts of the manipulators in such a way that these manipulators are successful in fulfilling their heinous plans and taking away the life, the prestige, the respect of their opponents!!!

Report card for Politicians
Well I believe all the things are judged by the progress made in a period of time. This is judged either through the performance in exams or through the progress report of the project which displays how much of the project has been completed.
In India, the biggest project that is the Five year plan and the budgets are not reviewed as regularly as they should be. Y shouldn't every year a report card of the project be placed in the parliament and available for the public scrutiny? All the projects that are promised in budgets with all the financials should be placed with all the relevant progress and the money expended displayed in it. May be the budget has all of this but they are not displayed in the right manner to give the public the right view. So I think there should be a dedicated progress report card displaying the progresses made and the reasons for delay and what are the steps that are being taken to avoid them in future.
