Yeah you are right @teamsteem.... hidden within the subconscious, there is an insatiable desire to feel powerful ...We humans are really voracious when it comes to power...its like an addiction of our's....
We always want to stay in control of ourselves and others...there is no limit to it, the more we feel powerful/control....the more we craves.
May be that will be our(humans) doom...
I remember an old happening written in our religious scripts...
A person came to Hazrat Ali(RA) and asked him
"How much in control we humans are???"
Ali (RA) said to him, "Lift your right foot up"
As he did so... Ali(RA) asked him
" Now lift your second foot"
and the man started looking with bewilderment at Ali (RA)...
Then Hazrat Ali smiled and said
"That is precisely how much powerful/in control we human are"
