The unsaid counter-point being that there are still a group of scientists waiting outside to unleash the cold showers if the monkeys ever "forget".

 

Anyway, in our situation, the monkeys are in charge. What can you expect when you pay peanuts?

I don't think SGD15K a month is peanuts.. Well, you can buy a lot of peanuts with 15K, but it's not peanuts.. =D

At the risk of sounding like a broken record...

 

SGD15k is not even peanuts, it's probably a sesame seed.

 

SGD600k is a peanut.

The other counter point to consider...

 

What do you do if your 1 year old reaches towards an open flame?

 

Stop him / her and possibly beat her hand right?

 

After a while the kid knows not to reach towards open flame.

 

Do you really want every kid to have to burn themselves to understand that you don't touch fire?

 

Sometimes things are done a certain way for a good reason - even if we don't understand the reason, it doesn't invalidate it.

Initially, I thought it originates from some of those Harlow's experiment.

Anyway, check out this url:

If interested, the Stanford prison experiment and Stockholm syndrome are good reads.
