POWER TO THE PEOPLE (in power)

Ever notice how normal working people who finally get the promotion from worker to management seem to take on a new personality.  Control over others is not only exciting but addictive!  Many good workers have done the "Jackal/Hyde" maneuver to exercise their control and at the same time trying to still be one of the good ole boys/girls!
Picture Frankenstein's monster when the surge of electricity went through his body. Pure unstoppable power! Pure disregard for the way he was before (dead) and now the ability to place fear while controlling others.
Then as they climb the Corporate ladder and refine those "power" skills, their distant past as a normal worker fades.  No longer do they take breaks or lunch or attend after work events with the working class.  They are now part of the "management" class and rubbing shoulders with others of like kind and quality.
This upward mobility not only in the private sector but in Government is identical! The power brokers and grabbers just want more and more power.  Often times when interviewed most who have reached almost the top will say they "love the chase!"
How many "bosses" have you worked for where you have seen this transformation take place? Many like the maggots that evolve into a fly, and few that evolve from a caterpillar into a butterfly!
If you are one of those with the power, tell me where I'm wrong!  Show me that power over others is often a good thing! Give me examples where that power is used for good!
While I'm in no way saying that we do not need "leaders" and "rules & regulations" we just need those people to retain much of the roots from where they came!
