...”My guess is that sociopaths outnumber the psychopaths, especially in the upper echelons.”...
Yes. “The Sociopath Next Door,” by Martha Stout, reveals how prevalent sociopaths are in high level positions in this country. In fact, they seem to be represented quite a lot in the political and corporate world. I would guess that academia also has it’s share. It actually makes sense in a perverted sort of way that large institutions would want a mean, ruthless person to rule because of the “win at all costs,” nature of our society, here in the 21st century. Just look at our FBI, once the most trusted organization in our government. Religion also has been shown to have too many “Elmer Gantry’s” among it’s pastors and priests. At the moment, if I were judging, I would choose the leftist American media, both news and entertainment, as the most psychopathic and sociopathic of organizations in our society. We are at risk when this kind of mental aberration is at the top of our ruling classes. In my view, President Trump is the stable one because he is trying to fight back against all of the worst traits of psychopathology which has ruled in politics for ever so long. Loved this report. It is the kind of information we need to have.

Strange answers to the psychopath test
Jon Ronson
I was at a friend’s house …….. and she had on her shelf ……the Manual of Mental Disorders ….. it lists every known mental disorder … it used to be back in the 50’s a very slim pamphlet, then it got bigger and bigger and bigger……….. And now it’s 886 pages long. It lists currently 374 mental disorders ……
This video is hilarious, brilliant, and yet very sad.
