What a stupid rule anyway.

It's all about POWER.

Unearned POWER.

Unearned POWER taken and wielded, by force, by those too stupid to ever have earned it by merit.

[For the POWER Lust is the noxious weed that flourishes in the vacant lot of EMPTY "minds"]

[Trust but Verify]

Sounds to me like it's about nature, not unearned power.
