People in positions of authority misusing or abusing their power is an example of a disadvantage to society of using authority.

Abuse of power may refer to a person using the power they have for their own personal gain. Abuse of power when refering to "malfeasance in office" or "official misconduct," is the commission of an unlawful act, done in an official capacity, which affects the performance of official duties.

Andrew Jackson was, to some, a great president. However, his cruel actions outweighed his good ones. He was malevolent to people of other races, like many southerners from that time period. He stole money from the government for his own personal benefit. He sent the Native Americans on the Trail of Tears and he was very cruel to slaves. All in all, Andrew Jackson was a malignant person who should not have become president. In the next couple paragraphs, I will explain more about Andrew Jackson and his flaws and cruel actions. (You can use this as your introduction paragraph)

Hope this helped! Sorry it took so long by the way, I got distracted with my essay:)
