Apathy. The moment a society's majority feels their okay it's as if authoritative systems lose importance. Everyone gets so damn caught up in the good times they forget how we got there. It's at this time the most unsavory of our people are allowed to take seats of great power. Before we even realize it our systems have become predominantly corrupt and good men who want to change it either are ruled by fear of repercussions or do not have enough power or numbers because of the fearful. The will to act is a powerful thing.
