why does everybody want to rule the world?

[BrokenVisage]

Just something I was thinking about while listening to Tears for Fears... at different times in this song, this guy says we all do, so why is it that people want to rule the world in this time of funky music?

Money, power, respect: what you need in life...

It's a projection of their self-discovery. In trying to "rule the world," so to speak, they are learning to utilize the energies at their disposal to actualize their own inner ideals in physical reality.

Everyone? ENTJ's are only 2% of the population

No taxes, no parking tickets, unlimited nookie.

If you knew me in real life, you would know that half of my sentences begin with "if I ruled the world..." and they end with a certain group of people being killed.


If I were in charge, we would hold an open vote to see who thinks drugs should require a prescription vs people who think I should be able to buy my blood sugar medication without having a book doctor appointments every 3 fucking months. The people who support prescriptions would require prescriptions, and the people who dont' like them would be able to buy their drugs without a prescription. The next day, prescriptions would be illegal. Millions of people would die and I would laugh because those assholes all deserve it.

If I were king of the world, everyone driving more than 10 below the speed limit would be killed.

If I were king of the world, the driving test would include a 2 hour physics exam as well as an in-car test. People who can't demonstrate that they understand physics would not be allowed to drive. $50 to write the test again.

If I were king of the world, sterilization would be a free government service.

If I were king of the world, school would be free if you graduate, but you would need to pay back the whole cost if you failed.

If I were king of the world, being allowed to vote would require a 3 hour written test that covered various topics of history, psychology, basic IQ testing, math, statistics, and problems involving banking. The test would be about as difficult as first year university.

I don't want to rule the world.

If I were king of the world, sterilization would be a free government service.

If I were king of the world, sterilization would be mandatory for everyone who fails a competency test.

 

[IronWing]

I want to rule the world, but not for very long, and I certainly wouldn't want to take responsibility for the actions taken under my short tenure as grand booba.

 

[SlitheryDee]

Most of the time it's probably just because they honestly think they know the best way to do things. No one is a villain in their own eyes.

What if I was tired? I don't want my dick cut off because I played too much Halo

Maybe Tears for Fears can tell you?

I just figured it was because it would be easy to sweat the bitches if you're ruler of the world.

Hey baby, I'm ruler of the world!!! As Mel Gibson would say, "You should just smile and blow me!!!"

 

[BrokenVisage]

Did no one get that this was a parody??

I am Jack's disappoint. D:

 

[Leros]

I'd like to be able to interject my positions and control people whenever I feel the need, but I have no interest in actually being in charge.

 

[Jaepheth]

Not everyone wants to rule the world...

some just want to watch it burn.

 

[hans030390]

People want to rule the world so that they can be like me.

Well said. :thumbsup:
