Why is it that Power & Corruption seem to be married at the hip to each other? Maybe it's just that the tales of power, corruption and lies are the tales that make the news, make the world go round?
If you assume that power will be misused, you will be rewarded. You will think that you are smarter than the rest of the herd. That would be a well-earned cynicism.
Maybe that's what it means to grow older. You remember. You make assumptions. And then you watch Human Beings do what you expected them to do.
