"With great power comes great responsibility." I heard that in Spiderman. It still resonates with me. I think it applies to any level of power. Whenever we are responsible for something, we have some power over it.

I'm responsible for my children. I have some power over them, whether I want it or not. Responsibility is skin in the game. If we aren't responsible, we will eventually be disposed of power.

When some want power, but not the responsibility, that's a red flag.



Everyone wants power but not responsibility, nobody wants to accept that their actions have consequences, they just accept them, sometimes.
