** Do you think Machiavelli's ideal ruler would be a good ruler in today's society? Why
why not?

Yes, In his masterpiece The Prince Machiavelli speaks of some wise, practical and also controversial qualities of a good ruler. The qualities he urges a ruler to practice are quite new ,but very effective. At first, it seems that Machiavelli is not much concerned with morality or religious values and his theory has no particular ends. In fact, Machiavelli is not motivated by any religious consideration and thus does not give emphasis on moral ends. But Machiavelli speaks of three ends, which every ruler should aim at. They are to gain power, to retain power and to extend power.

Yes Because  Machiavelli include ruthlessness when necessary, the ability to inspire respect, military expertise, and a willingness to set virtue aside.
