What happens when you pay two monkeys unequally? Watch what happens. An excerpt from the TED Talk: "Frans de Waal: Moral behavior in animals."

I agree, grapes are pretty amazing.
ROTFLMAO! Worth watching for a guffaw!
That’s funny.
That,is great.
The moral of the story is start up a business, staff it entirely with low-paid women so you can make a fortune, hire one highly paid male to do the same work, then STAND BACK and DUCK!
The monkey gave a human a rock for a cucumber?
Let’s see......
Rocks.....everywhere.
Cucumbers....have to be planted, watered, picked.
The monkey wins.
Any experiments where a monkey works hard all day and has half his grapes taken by force and given to an illegal alien monkey ?
Ok, equal pay for equal work, but what the Socialists want is equal outcomes, no matter the level of effort (at least for themselves). A better experiment would be to give the monkey cucumber for 1 rock and grapes for 5 rocks. Unlike Socialists, monkeys understand the concept of reward for work, and more reward for more work. They would catch on quickly, because monkeys are smarter than Socialists.
And if you don’t get what you want, you throw stuff at the people who gave it to you and try to tear things up?
Oh my.
I’m not sure they want to show this video anymore.
It’s was funny until the end when the snowflake perfesser said that this was what the “Wall Street protests” were all about.
Exactly. The wall street protesters would be like a monkey refusing to do the task, demanding a grape, attacking the other monkey that successfully performed the task, and then defecating on a cop car.
Simian Lives Matter...Hands up, throw poop!
Rocks are basically free.
Cucumbers have to be grown.....they cost money to produce.
The moral of this story is.....
DON’T GIVE THE MONKEYS FREE CUCUMBERS!
“The wall street protesters would be like a monkey refusing to do the task, demanding a grape, attacking the other monkey that successfully performed the task, and then defecating on a cop car.”
THAT’S funny!!
A group of scientists placed five monkeys in a cage, and in the middle, a ladder with bananas on top.Every time a monkey went up the ladder, the scientists soaked the rest of the monkeys with cold water.
After a while, every time a monkey would start up the ladder, the others would pull it down and beat it up.
After a time, no monkey would dare try climbing the ladder, no matter how great the temptation.
The scientists then decided to replace one of the monkeys. The first thing this new monkey did was start to climb the ladder. Immediately, the others pulled him down and beat him up.
After several beatings, the new monkey learned never to go up the ladder, even though there was no evident reason not to, aside from the beatings.
The second monkey was substituted and the same occurred. The first monkey participated in the beating of the second monkey. A third monkey was changed and the same was repeated. The fourth monkey was changed, resulting in the same, before the fifth was finally replaced as well.
What was left was a group of five monkeys that – without ever having received a cold shower – continued to beat up any monkey who attempted to climb the ladder.
If it was possible to ask the monkeys why they beat up on all those who attempted to climb the ladder, their most likely answer would be “I don’t know. It’s just how things are done around here.”
Apparently, cats also react badly when you give them cucumbers...

Is this on The Gorilla Channel?
I always thought Nesmith deserved more pay than the rest of them, being the only real musician and all...
This really is an excellent experiment.
Humans give the monkeys a rock.
The monkeys didn’t have to earn it. They were given the rock. Every time.
They didn’t have to go out and search for rocks or dig for rocks. They did no work.
Plus, you can bet that these weren’t starving monkeys. Give a starving monkey a cucumber and see if he throws it out.
They traded the free rock for something.
They completely missed the real lesson here.
The welfare monkeys wanted to be GIVEN the best.
Handing someone a rock is about as much work as signing for your welfare.
And I’m including white monkeys in this. There are plenty of them.
envy + resentment against achievement = libtardism
