What do people do when they imagine themselves to be entirely unaccountable? Jesus tells the story in Luke 12:42-48 of a servant trusted to care for a household but he thinks the master is delayed in coming home. So he drinks and eats all things in the house, and then beats the other servants. I find the story to be a helpful metaphor for government which imagines itself to be unaccountable. It devours as much wealth as possible and abuses the people.
