Power corrupts, absolute power corrupts absolutely....
Those in power are never satisfied with any limit to their authority.
Politicians / leaders will always say that they need more power to do this and do that.....its when they use that power to control their own citizens - thats when we are in danger. From free thinking citzens to fearful slaves...

without checks and balances, a malevolence can breed where benevolence reigned. Lenin had the best of intentions, but it was the weakness and carte blanche nature of his dictatorship that opened the way for Stalin. i agree with some great answers here above me.

between the experts of dictatorship is that its a lot swifter and effective if issues could desire to get replaced in a central authority. If a dictator needs something accomplished, he orders somebody to do it. If a democracy or a republic needs something accomplished, it has to flow by using all varieties of regulations, get it exceeded by utilising a majority of the human beings, get it exceeded by utilising a undeniable branch of the government, write up the legislature for a regulation or provision, and so on. , and so on.

Have you read "With Folded Hands"?
"To serve and obey and guard men from harm."
When we give the choice of our actions to someone else, even a benevolent someone, we give our voice away.
