I see the point(s) you guys make, and it is a point probably very true (damn, I could've brought it up myself, too, as the cynic I am, but was too overwhelmed by positivity for a moment there :P).

I believe that all positions of power attract a quota of psycho's, sadists and losers who seek revenge for their empty or failed lives, in particular if these positions are more or less inconspicuous.
Good point. That is one of the reasons I really think people must be changed. There must be a way, some way, to harmonize and unite. To not only economically prosper, but also have good morality, values, etc. Then if everybody has no failure, has enough and good wisdom, virtues, successful lives, etc., there is no reason to abuse power, to have vengeance, and all of these other horrific acts, including the abuse of children mainly discussed in this thread.

Sometimes I'm just ashamed I'm human :P
