I disagree with the idea that if you are in a position of power than you are happy, because even if you have power doesn't mean you have a nice loving family or great friends. I am not saying that all powerful people are sad, but having a lot of power might put a lot of stress into one person. A lot of people who have little to no power are much more happy than the people who have power and everything they want. In the end I think that you can be happy with a lot of power and control, but that is not what makes you automatically happy.
I strongly agree with the statement of everyone is capable of lying, betrayal, and violence, which are basic parts of human nature. I think that everyone is born with these traits, and that they are changeable at a young age. Personally I think that no one has never lied, because everyone has tried to get away with something by lying to the person accusing them of it. I think that One lie leads to another lie, because you have to cover up your first lie. Overall I think that these are characteristics that everyone is born with.
I agree with you on both subjects. I like how you used a variety of different examples to back these points.
