That's a classic philosophical problem. It's really a killer question. Your claim reminds me of how Plato sets up the plot of The Republic.

(BTW, The Lord of The Rings trilogy is in part Tolkien's retort to this claim. In his telling, such a kind of rind ring must be destroyed. Socrates was wrong: no one can resist the temptation. Not even reason (Gandalf) or innocence (Hobbits) can withstand its predicament.)
