Re: Does power corrupt?

I think that some people will see the 'main chance' and make the most of it......those who start out straight and are seduced by opportunity would always have had that streak in them.

And there is no difference in them...they are both as bad as one another.

Power is not a licence to do as you please at the expense of others....because there is always somebody who pays...usually the little man.
