Also with Helen being gone, he doesn't really have anyone to sacrifice. I guess its a good thing John Locke doesn’t have any kids.

Highbrow- you and Dabs share a similar opinion of Widmore, and I think that concept of widmore as representing greed and material gain, or the use of material wealth as power and influence is something worth theorizing about. What do you think Widmore's motivations are? Is the good of the Island good for the world or any of the people on it?

Eloise may or may not have been forced to leave, but she too sacrifices her only child to the Island. It stands to reason that Ben, also a former leader, would also follow the will of the Island. Interesting that the presence of children seems to cause the most issues for leaders of the Others...
