Psychopaths - an introduction
Psychopaths (aka sociopaths) make up from 1% to 4% of the adult population, but the percentage increases as you move from the general population to positions of control and power, where psychopaths thrive. For example, corporate executive suites may be populated by a far higher percentage of psychopaths.
Basically a psychopath is a person who is able to lie, cheat and/or steal without feeling any guilt, shame or remorse. They have no conscience and only a hole where their heart should be. They are only interested in control and winning.
Psychopaths think they are smarter than the rest of us. They believe that having a conscience is a crippling debility that afflicts the 96% of us who do have a conscience. They believe that NOT having a conscience frees them, and that they are the only fully functioning members of society.
Psychopaths do exactly what they want, regardless of legal, moral or ethical strictures that would limit an ordinary person. They do what they want, and then wait for the legal system to catch up to them. An excellent current (2015) example is Russian president Vladimir Putin's invasion of Crimea and eastern Ukraine.

YouTube Excerpts:
The Psychopath's Enablers
Psychopaths almost always have an enabler, typically a spouse or powerless employee (a minion or lackey) who believes in them totally and completely, and is convinced their detractors are lying.
