Some 3% of humans are psychopathic.

Many more are sociopathic.

The clinical definition is that Psychopaths are born, and Sociopaths are made.

These people disproportionately destroy the general harmony of human relations by their incessant desire to control other people.

The characteristic feature of the Psycho-Sociopath is their need to create the rules or framework in which the people they relate to must operate.

Thus, they seek positions of Central Planning, and Power.

“Normal” people don’t die in offices of Power. They withdraw long before to spend time with family, and friends.

Right?

Would you continually force yourself to work beyond an age you could easily retire?

This is crucial to understand.

People who cling to positions of power beyond a reasonable age, are not normal. They’re adult children.

They are Sociopathic. They don’t have emotional connections to other people. They value the tribe of Power, of other sociopaths, more than they value family and friends.

They WANT to die as a Great Leader.

Not “retire” comfortably.

When people don’t WANT to retire comfortably, there is something fundamentally broken about them.
