SPOT ON NICOLE! The "will to power" is a clear pathology, but somehow we have an economic ideological cult disguised as a science (neofeudalism) that turns our worst vices into virtues. If humans were really as sick as my colleagues in economics maintain, we'd have gone extinct ions ago. It is so interesting how folks miss read narcissism as self love (based on the ancient myth), when it is actually self hatred. Like an addict, they require increasing doses of power to affirm their failing sense of self.
