Today, we finished the video. The most surprising phrase that was mentioned was that it is a "race to the bottom instead of pursuing the happiness of people." I thought that this was completely true, now learning that many companies hire children for the lowest wage people could ever think. Also, it was very surprising to know that companies literally copyright everything, even if people have been using it for a long time. The story of Monstanto seeds also surprised me and honestly, I didn't know why people could do these things. Knew that money drives people crazy but not this far. I thought that maybe to restrict these inhumane acts, we can make the punishment really harsh so that the companies wouldn't want to do those things.
