No check and balance what if ruler becomes crazy like Pol Pot
and starts wanton killing?
Then how?
No one to check.
Look at USA, no USSR to check and balance it, now anyhow make up
stories to serve as pretext and invade countries.
Man is like that one, sometimes will get big headed and become
cocky, like our Lee Kuan Yew.
He lives in his own dream world now.
Yin and Yang must balance.
No balance, sure something go wrong.
