Then the bankers would be more than happy to lend money to the sheeple when they go to buy one from the former oil company-turned electric car company.
On equipment: You get what you inspect, not what you expect.
On training: Our drills are bloodless battles so that our battles are bloody drills.
On tactics: Cheating just means you're serious about winning.
