Okay, I know I read about this dude on Mefi. He was a British guy who died in the last I think decade? He might have been a socialist. And he kept four rules pinned up on his wall, and one was like if you have power how can you get rid of it. Who is this guy?! It's driving me bonkers!

Best answer: Are you thinking of Tony Benn's five questions?
"What power have you got?”

“Where did you get it from?”

“In whose interests do you use it?”

“To whom are you accountable?”

“How do we get rid of you?”
