Many people refuse to believe that we don't live in a meritocracy where the best skilled person gets the job.

In reality we live in a world were people get hired and fired based on their likability and ability to fit into the group. Yes, a minimum standard of technical skill is usually required but that is not the deciding factor between candidates.

Instead of pummeling your opponent to dust, you persuade him to see things your way! Now THAT is a super power I want!

But what is its limitations? Does it have a radius of effect? Is it effective over telecom systems? Are women impervious?

I like that one, one of my bigger problems is people not seeing things my way.
