I'm doing an english report on this statement:‘ Power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely’. In my report I state whether or not I agree with the statement. Before stating what I think, I'd like to see what ATRL views on this statement. Do you agree with what Lord Acton said, " Power corrupts and absolute power corrupts"?
Yes. Look at some of history's absolute rulers or dictators and how they're viewed today.
Benito Mussolini -- a depriver of liberty and a hater of human differences
---
Josef Stalin -- a murderer who attempted to strip people of individuality
----
Adolph Hitler -- synonymous with evil. Mass genocide.
