Only a fool would trade modern life for the mentioned "power".

Best thing today is: I can ditch the "power struggle" stuff and live a happy, healthy and fulfilling life.

Unless I fall for the mental manipulations used to draw people as pawns into "power struggles".

Except that if your elected officials decide to act in a way that would jeopardize your creature comforts, you can...tweet about it? Meanwhile, he'd just get new officials installed, and ensure that he maintained his comfort.

See the difference?

I don't use Twitter, I chose to be happy

If you can have a happy life without thinking about power struggles, it's because you were born on the winning team.
