Can a want become a demand and how?

Answer 1

A want becomes a demand when a threat is added to the mix. I.e. I want to borrow some money. Or Give me your money or I will…………….! In the 700 billion bail out it was I want 700 billion dollars to …………. When it was voted down it became, we have to have the 700 billion or this will happen…………! You might say this is not a threat, but when you put fear into people with unknowns or might be, it is a threat. They do not know what would happen so they use fear to get what they want. That is a threat. This makes a want become a demand.
