Am I the only one annoyed by this new saying?

To have power is to exert control over things. To exert control is to work. The idea of "resting" in power seems like backwards addle-brained stupidity to me.

It just looks like modern rot to me. The perpetual fixation on power; having power, being powerful, reducing everything to "power" struggles. I'm sick of it.

Am I over thinking this?
