    some of that basic advice still boggles the minds of leaders today

    “always leave a way for your enemy to escape, a hopeless enemy fights to the death”

    oh what was that? grind all the money out of everyone so they feel hopeless and feel like there’s no way out? yeah great idea let’s do that - apparently every profit centred institution
