Food for thought:
A common social theory in libertarian circles is that positions of power are inherently dangerous because they attract people with a predisposition to abusing that power. A petty thief holds up a liquor store, or mugs people leaving the ATM. But an evil genius doesn’t construct an entire evil empire from scratch. He simply puts on a placid smile and a flag pin and runs for office. It’s much easier, and less expensive, for an evil genius to deceive a gullible electorate than to acquire the same degree of power in the free market. Besides, guile is a much more common trait among sociopaths than business acumen.
