(H) 269-276: Meyer, If Hitler Asked You…

If Hitler asked me to electrocute someone of course I would do it because I am scared of him and because he is in higher power than me. In this chapter an experiment was done by Milgram and he showed in the experiment how we do something if it is ordered. I find it interesting that 12 out of 40 actually continued to electrocute the person even though they knew it hurt the person. This really makes me question people are willing to do anything if they are ordered. My thing is was it for the money or was it because they were ordered to? In the end it was because they were ordered and I can see why we as people do things if we are order to because the other person is in higher authority.
