RE: Steemit Basic Income Giveaway (Superpower)
You don't get to choose your superpower sadly, but if I could, I'd go for super charisma.
People would listen to me and do what I ask them, but not because they're mind controlled... Just because they like me, they agree with me, they're excited by my ideas, they want to give my big secret plan a chance.
It's not a very sexy superpower and I'm choosing it only because it's sorely needed.
As for downsides, well I guess the world president would not get much free time, and even less privacy. All the cheering all the time would become stale very quickly. But no downsides for everyone else: I will be a benign influence, an inspiration, leading by example, absolutely not a tyrant, and everyone will enjoy peace, happiness, liberty, free pizza.
Free pizza! That has my vote, you don't even need charisma!
It is an interesting superpower, the ability to sway opinion rather than control thoughts. It is much more subtle than pure control!
I hope you would be a benevolent Dictator, and that you would equally benevolent heirs!
The winners and the new question (I've told you how to do this before...) is here:
