Machiavelli explains that a “leader can only give so much until they have no more to give--then the people will cease to respect them” p? He goes on to say that when

When this behavior is compared to those of modern leaders, it is clear that Machiavelli’s advice concerning coming into power, qualities a leader should have, and the manner in which a leader should make decisions is still highly
