[QUOTE="Snarky Oracle!, post: 404275, member: 57984"] That's always been the problem -- and always will be: narcissists (and narcissist-sociopaths) run everything. And they run everything because they want to. Even in the average office setting, the bad people (and there [B]are [/B]bad people) are always most interested in obtaining positions of authority -- overt or covert authority -- and are always trying to control what everybody thinks about everybody else. Sometimes some decent people may wind up in lower management positions, but their decency usually prevents them from rising any higher (and very often, they don't really want to, wanting to keep their heads down in hopes of just surviving). And destroying innocent people is frequently a source of gauding competition and entertainment for the higher ups. Extreme greed and extreme selfishness always have a sadistic element to them. Always. It's, like, biblical and shit. Naturally, this plays out on the federal gov't level in their need to serve the major corporations (which are the real government). They're whores. They're sociopathic whores... If they [B]weren't [/B]sociopathic whores, they wouldn't reach those positions. And if, as a fluke, they did reach those positions, they'd leave or be pushed-out very quickly as an obvious foreign entity. (In fact, they're literally accused of being a foreign entity, as they're labeled a "Russian asset" or a "Putin puppet" if they appear to even fleetingly express any kind of genuine conscience at all). So we're screwed. But we usually are. Sometimes we inch closer to nuclear obliteration than usual, and that just adds to the fun. [/QUOTE]
