The Obama campaign has confirmed, (as did some of the protesters) that Democrats are paying people to heckle Mitt Romney at campaign events.sThis is why I hate politics with a passion.

Let me explain a bit. I do not disagree with what you have posted, and it was not my intention to paint with a broad brush. Certainly not everyone in a position of power, be it an elected official or a CEO or whathaveyou, is there only because they relish the power. Rather, there are a myriad of considerations, as you point out in your case.
My focus, though, was on the impulse of some to aspire to leadership positions, and/or positions of power. Again, not necessarily a flaw. One person's aggression and arrogance is another person's drive and confidence.
Fair enough. I was also trying to point out that these people are all elected. Shareholders vote, and even if they are drowned out by the institutionals, the institutionals are represented by their shareholders or pensioners or whatever. At some point it gets back to individuals being greedy and thinking it's okay to screw everyone else as long as they get theirs. Then we get all surprised/indignant/alienated fro the process when we elect greedy people and they screw us instead of putting us on the crony list. If we aren't morally true in our selection process, then we shouldn't be surprised when the resulting system is corrupt.
steeler wrote: I do know that folk who have served in CEO-type positions when asked about the high salaries often are quoted as saying that there are not many among the populace who could do their jobs. Again, not necessarily anything wrong with holding that view, but it is a view that the person in question is part of a select segment of the population.
Yeah, I've seen that. It makes me laugh. I'm good at what I do, I make good money, but I'm hardly irreplaceable. If I'm gone tomorrow, there will be a dozen people lining up for the slot. They may have somewhat different approaches, and they may not all succeed, but there is nothing that I do that is cast in unobtainium. I deserve the money I get because of my results, not because of some secret sauce that only I know how to craft.

Not everyone who has power has acquired it through, or been given it by, politicians/government. That is way too broad of a statement, and it also tends to absolve most of us from responsibility for systemic problems (The "I'm ok, and you're ok, it's just these guys over here that are the problem") . well there's people who have made/built companies through good solid/legit business what power would they have over any other person? what power do they have to compel anyone to do anything? isn't the interaction voluntary? and there are those who have used political influence/corruption to fleece the taxpayer (either by forcing the taxpayer to pay by law/contract or some unfair rule to discriminate against competition, etc.) even though the system is corrupt you have to an easy way to tell if they have employed lobbyists, look at the results/legislation regards I think one of the reasons unions were formed was because of the power the employer had over the employees. Of course, an employee is free to leave that employment as we do not have slaves or indentured servants anymore. I would not necessarily equate political influence with corruption. There are all kinds of organizations that lobby for legislation. Nonprofits do it all the time. The advocacy of factions was part of the Framers' vision. Not all lobbyists are corrupt or possessed of ill intentions. And neither are all organizations that employ them. Your comment about legislation forcing the taxpayer to pay for the law/contract being a form of corruption is curious. These are elected officials, and everyone has the right to vote. They can voluntarily exercise that right, or voluntariliy not exercise it. They can also voluntarily choose to live somewhere other than in the jurisdiction in which they currently reside (local, state, or federal). The whole notion that a taxpayer should not have to pay for a law with which they disagree turns the whole concept of representative government on its head.

That said, do think that politics and the super high levels of business (CEOs of G.E., Microsoft, Ford, ect.) do attract a certain breed of individual.

Gary Johnson....You have to Google him here in MN to find where his supporters are even based. He is unknown to a vast segment of the public. The nation, it seems to me, hasn't even noticed him. much less discussed his him or his ideas. More of a cult figure (meant positively here) than candidate.
There are many people with ideas worth a voice. But the campaign structure we have, based on money, and being telegenic and a superior orator, as well as free of the smallest skeleton, and the micro probing of the candidate and their family(ies) that goes with it, turns off, or down right disqualifies, many would-be candidates.
We create and/or feed the bolded portion. Made me think of nomination of Douglas Ginsburg to the Supreme Court. Had to be withdrawn because or revelation of his marijuana use. I remember a law professor of mine coming into class and asking: "So, how many here could withstand a nomination to the Supreme Court?"
