Bill Clinton’s Non-Zero Sum



Plucked from the pages of Wikipedia.

“The more complex societies get and the more complex the networks of interdependence within and beyond community and national borders get, the more people are forced in their own interests to find non-zero-sum solutions. That is, win–win solutions instead of win–lose solutions…. Because we find as our interdependence increases that, on the whole, we do better when other people do better as well — so we have to find ways that we can all win, we have to accommodate each other….”

    Amazing. Here is a note I wrote this morning:

    Chess is a zero sum game - how bout a positive sum game where the winner is the one who builds the most unassailable defense, (and adding as a thought now) while losing the least amount of assets to an attacker, and with minimal damage infilicted on the attacker, or something like that.
