Political power is said to be the ability to control people in a country without problem.but too much political power bring about dictators.
when a government has too much political power, then it is worthy of being called a regime, for example this has happened in russia where a president has too much political power and he is able to change the constitution according to his wishes and is able to organize the military for his interests. some said that "if it is the will of the people to want him to remain president, then so be it". however, too much power is actually poison and it can make a president dictatorial and iron-fisted, who will do various things to get away with being president for life.
We should not forget thatbthe government are also people working for us. Sometimes they are giving so much power to enforce law and do the way they live which might not be that favorable for us all. We need to be proactive and make sure we work together with the government but in a way that would jeopardize the entire plan they have for us but to reduce their influence on us so our own decisions too can count and go a long way for us. Power can corrupt people that have not gotten such a power before.
