Rich vs poor – a social experiment

When posed with the question – “What’s more important to you, money or morals?” – most people are quick to name the latter. This is all in theory. In reality, when you are faced with a situation and your moral compass is put to the test, your answer might be something completely different.

While this isn’t a necessarily an accurate indicator of the moral fabric of society, the results are pretty shocking.
