Most of the Public see's Catch-22 as "your
damned if you do or your damned if you don't".

Catch 22 is variously defined in the novel, but its ultimate
definition is this: "They can do anything to you that you can't stop
them from doing."

Ford's Corollary to Catch 22 is this: "You can do anything that they
can't stop you from doing." Personally, I find this a much more useful
guide to life than Mr. Heller's.
