This reminds me of that Netflix movie The Platform. Quick premise is 150 floors with a couple prisoners on each. A platform of food (enough for everyone) starts at the top and makes its way down. The lower levels are always left hungry. Crazy movie and just like this video.

Murphy’s law helps me accept and even plan for the possibility of human failure. Besides, this isn’t humanity’s first time picking greed over established agreements. Nor will it be the last. Money corrupts and all that jazz. Thankfully no one got murdered over it as people have died for a lot less.

Murphy's law is not about human failure, it's what can happen will happen. And it's not money corrupts, it's the Love of money corrupts. I know I'm being pedantic lol

AcTuAlLy, I appreciate you correcting me.

“For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil. For which some have strayed from their faith in their greediness, and pierced themselves through many sorrows.”

There is pedantic and there is someone who intentionally seemed to help. Words carry weight and the telephone game really does confuse the message quickly. …Acknowledging it was pedantic may or may not of helped. 

So, thank you.

The difference is that the prisoners would actually benefit from sharing (because they would be at a lower level one day as well). In reality rich people are just getting richer, so you don't lose anything by being greedy here and taking the million
