"But, and it is a Big 'Them & Us' But, let us not forget 'Them' are just as Human as 'Us' Ordinary Souls.
And with that Humanity come all those Ordinary things like Relationships, Health and the Ultimate DEATH!"
But until then, it's The Rich & Powerful Them who rule all the Roosts
INTRO (a):-It is said that 'Power' Corrupts; Absolute Power Corrupts Absolutely!'
The quote comes from the nineteenth-century English historian Lord Acton (1834-1902) in a letter to Bishop Mandell Creighton about how historians should judge the abuse of Power by Past Rulers, especially Popes.
But in this Modern Cultivated Era Popes are the very least of our 'Power Corruption' worries!
Although in War they have been known to take sides, and at times the wrong ones, perhaps just to save their own mortal skins - Martyrdom is no longer De-Riguer and therefore none of that Rigor Mortis to worry about!?!
But, and it is a very important Big But, they still seem to be around, despite their prior wrong choices on behalf of their followers!
And that is what those 'Power Corrupted' want to happen to them - some sort of 'Ruling in Perpetuity!?'
So, they exist in some sort of protected bubble from any dissenter's bullet!
Because it is by the bullet is how they have ruled and just as likely got into Power!?
But and it is such a Big Tormenting Big But, there are still some Rulers out there, now and in the past, who have tried their best to Rule in the Best Interests of their Populace - attempting to improve their Country's lot!
But the populace is so fickle and can vote out those best to Rule them because they are not 'immediately' given everything they want: Greece perhaps is a Modern Example where the Political parties eventually gave away so much and ignored the future financial implications of nobody seemingly paying any Tax! (Something so true to # John's Experienced Collector's Heart.)
# John is the Principal 'clinical trial patient' character in my Trilogy: 'Plain Jane Guinness & I Once...'
There again one can appreciate the Carrot rather than the Stick approach, as the Term in Office is likely too short to show the benefits of prudence, or sensible spending etc.
But in the most corrupt set ups the Megalomaniac Despotic Ruler's stick is replaced with a more potent killing weaponry and those only too willing to follow such assassination orders!
Or the assailant needs simply be ordered to make sure the opponent disappears to some distant Gulag Prison, likely to die out of sight and out on mind of the World, who have more important matters to worry about e.g. their rising cost of living?
Tell that to the imprisoned opponent whose living has now been defencelessly terminated.
And the person who ordered the eradication is still part of the living and most likely bleeding his Nation's Coffers dry as funds get transferred to his and his cronies accounts across the four corners of their 'Bolt Hole' World!
So, with all this in mind the scene has been set
as to who are this Book's Main Protagonists!?
But perhaps the War in Ukraine will just make Monkeys of Us All?
OR BY WHAT IS THE MOST RICH AND POWERFUL!?
