This is utterly fascinating. Thank you for providing this link. Funnily enough, my thoughts immediately went to "is Milgram any better?". Seems like he might be, somewhat. The question for me then becomes:

can people be trusted with authority, on a general level? Are there studies to prove / disprove the adage that power corrupts / that people with personality disorders such as psychopathy or narcissism seek out (or thrive in, or are promoted to) positions of power?

Thank you again, I shall revise my opinion from now on and seek out more studies on the matter.
