Powers tend to corrupt
and absolute power corrupts absolutely.
Some say that power may corrupt,
but absolute power corrupts lot less then partial power.
Some studies found
that people who, have litter power but don’t have status
can behave in nasty ways
and get a kick out of demeaning others.
It is often observed that
the people at the top are bastards,
but we forget that the people at the bottom
can be even bigger ones.
