[QUOTE="DJ Fergus, post: 1924498, member: 93895"] Not that he has any thing to do with this subject matter but I read an article about Kim Jong Un. It was talking about our intelligence trying to Profile him. The things that stood out in this article was that many times the more powerful a person becomes the more self important they become to themselves. To the point that they believe it's ok to do wrong if it's for what they believe to be the greater good. And as their power increases to the point that they have a dictator status, they start seeing themselves in a God like status and need to be worshipped. They see no wrong in people suffering, starving or dieing etc... because they believe that they are a God of sorts and what ever they need to do is ok. This article went on to say that this scenario is actually a change in the physical & chemical properties of the person's brain over time. I'm not an expert in that sort of subject matter but I think that we can look at dictators of Communist & Socialist nation's throughout history and see how these things in the article I mentioned make a little sense. How many times in history have dictators starved and massacred their own people. And they seem to have done it with complete confidence that they were doing the right thing. That's because they believed "the right thing to do" was to do what was best for themselves due to their God Like outlook they had of themselves. Saying all that, I do believe there's some rich & powerful people in the world today whom have a similar outlook of themselves. [/QUOTE]
