Incentive - in short, urging people to do more good things and less bad things
not come about organically->someone has to invent
Three basic flavors - economic, social, and moral
Example - anti-smoking campaign(sin tax-economic incentive, banning of cigarettes in
restaurant-social incentive, terrorists who sell black-
market cigarettes raise money- moral)
