But then, supposing you are the "benevolent dictator", what do you do with all the other guys who also want to make the world a better place, but their idea of better is the polar opposite of yours, and they are demonstrating (sometimes violently) outside your office building? Well yer gonna hafta round em up, which is going to piss off their friends and family, who heretofore may not have exactly been against you, but now they sure are! So you have more and more people who disagree with you, so you have to do something about them now. Before you know it the whole country is against you, and you were only trying to make things better! Oh the injustice!

Every dog has his day; then he gets rounded up by the dog pound people and
(if he's lucky) gets humanely put to sleep; because, otherwise, he gets 
too big for his
boots and h*mps all the other dogs.
