There are so many exciting details has appeared when I finished my chapter one. The author was trying to tell us we are blind and obstinate, especially at the things we have already know. For example: blood donation. I had so many chances to donate my blood in my own country but I just simply ignored it. Because they usually offer you some foods such as cookies and gifts after after your donation. I don't like that, the more annoying thing is they force you to fill the papers, but only thing I want to have is the souvenir, some tiny, funny stuff. In my opinion, gifts are money, and I don't sell my blood for money.
For most of us, moral incentive has much powerful influence than money at the public activities. For the state affairs and politics, it's a diffenrent situation. Current economy profits has became the most essential ingredient of our political system, so every group work for their benefits but they also usually deny it. Politicians are good at disguising, on the other hand, civilians are good avoid moral damage.
Freakonomics is a book which tells some stories about how the real motives and reasons has been covered and how we been distracted. It is very excellent reading experience to me! I am keep going to connect the book and my real life
I'm glad you're enjoying this book! In this entry, I was also hoping for a summary outline, though. However, your summary and reaction were very interesting!
