Politicians

Beware of politicians. In fact, beware of everybody. When some people believe they might have even the slightest edge in power over you they are willing to abuse it. Even the more so when they are physically more powerful than you and even more so under the influence of hallucinogens or intoxicating drugs or alcohol. And yet more so when they believe that they have, through wealth or influence, more power in the courts.
I am not a politician. The closest I've come is being President of the St. Joseph, Illinois Community Council (a non-government organization) or holding various offices in miscellaneous membership clubs and similar organizations. On the other hand, I am not financially beholden to anyone for financing repeated Democrat or Republican or Green or Libertarian, etc. campaigns to get me elected to a position of POWER. I'd like to see power used to do right by all, not to enforce a my-party-or-nothing right of might whether it is being used to do something or block something.
