Mark“Especially should the laws provide against any one having too much power, whether derived from friends or money; if he has, he should be sent clean out of the country.”
Book V, Politics, #Aristotle
Aristotle was a careful analyst of ancient states, interested in what tended to work or not work. So this advice is pragmatic, not something he regards as inherently just or unjust.
Today, we are ok with the use and abuse of power by individuals with immense wealth and influence.
