Oh and don't discount 'civil and rhetorical' which can be
pernicious and severe. Per Alphonse Capone, "You can steal
more with a pen than a gun."  The modern applications of
that usually start with, "For the children...".

It's a self esteem thing. When people take directions from someone
with low esteem it makes them feel important. It doesn't seem to
matter if the directions are forced on them as in schools, or
voluntary as in social groups.

I think leaders are generally people with low esteem who need
followers to make them feel important.

It's not, "I'm important so I will lead you." It's more likely, "I
need to feel important, so follow me."

Not many senior people in the military are weak kneaded, quite simply
because their responsibilities are already mapped out before hey get
the job."I appoint you as in charge of aircraft maintenance" and "if
the airplanes don't fly as scheduled you lose your job" while probably
not spoken is understood by both parties.

"Leaders" in every category are forever striving to have more power
and get more control. I know that they believe they are "serving," but
that's a bullshit attempt to justify their need to feel important.

Some leaders are different. Just like people are different.
One of the first things you learn in medicine.
Study "Pepe" Mujica and Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva. They are as
poor today as they were when they took office......
Mujica retired last year, and wants to spend the rest of his
life on his farm. Lula retired in 2010 intending to spend his last
days with his family, and only came back to fight the fascists here in
Brazil.
Even Jesus, who I believe existed (but as a politician not a
character in a  rather badly written fairy tale) was never a
power/money/control grabber. And he is still a "Leader" today. LOL.

Yeah, from what I read he seemed like an allright kind of guy. Too bad

 I read somewhere that his name started with "y," but I'm pretty sure
they didn't have the English alphabet then. Being a respect person, I
always reffered to him as Mr. Christ.
