What is the gratification of acquiring money and exercising power for old men who already have tons of both and few years left to live? ...

[webtrekker]

To me, this is one of the most important questions and one that must be answered if the human race is to have any future.

 

Most of the protagonists are in their twilight years and will never want for money or power, yet they are still hell-bent on destroying the world and it's occupants.

 

Why?

 

Is it just that they are pure evil and not even interested in material gains? Or is it something else? I just can't get my head around what they have to gain when they already have everything and why it's so important to them given their age. I don't even think it's to provide their offspring with overwhelming power and wealth as most of them, from what I've read over the past few years, don't give two fucks about their family.

 

I'd love to hear further thoughts on this, no matter how far-fetched you may think they are. There has to be an answer somewhere in all of this mess.

I feel that they serve a higher power, and there is their loyalty to the firm and the wider family?

"All I can say is that I am not daunted. I know the high office I have accepted and I hope to live up to its demands. But when the opportunity to serve comes along, you cannot question the moment, only your willingness."
