The late John W. Campbell, former editor of Astounding/Analog
Science Fact/Fiction, pointed out in one of his editorials that
that the maxim would be more accurate if the word "power" were
replaced by "immunity".  This is why the first thing a politician
does once he gets into power is to try to dismantle or bypass
those checks and balances.
