but we sauerbraten we started out with capuchin monkeys so what we did is we put two capuchin monkeys side-by-side again these animals they live in a group they know each other we take them out of the group put them in a test chamber and there's a very simple task that they need to do and if you give both of them cucumber for the task the two monkeys side-by-side they're perfectly willing to do this 25 times in a row so cucumber even though it's really only water in my opinion but cucumber is perfectly fine for them now if you give the partner grapes the food preferences of my capuchin monkeys correspond exactly with the prices in the supermarket and so if you give them grapes it's a far better food then you create inequity between them so that's the experiment we did recently we videotaped it with no monkeys we've never done the task is thinking that maybe they would have a stronger reaction and that turned out to be right the one on the left is a monkey yes cucumber the one on the right is the one who gets grapes the one who gets cucumber note that the first piece of cucumber is perfectly fine the first PC eats then CC's the other one getting grape and you will see what happens so she gives a rock to us that's the task and we give her a piece of cucumber and she eats it the other one needs to give a rock to us and that's what she does and she gets a grape and CETA the other one sees that she gives a rock to us now guess again cucumber she tests a rock now against the wall she needs to give it to us and she gets cucumber again so this is basically the Wall Street protest that you see here let me tell you I still have two minutes left let me tell you a funny story about is this this
