Countrywide will not do anything to help the people because they don't care about them. The company only wants to benefit itself and fighting for them to keep the house would mean they would lose the house. The system was set up to make sure Countrywide would end up on top and not worry about the people who lost their home. To fix this problem the people who got foreclosed could take it to court and fight against Countrywide and show how unjust it is. We would think differently of this situation if we were a part of the system because we would want to end up on top and we would take down anyone who got in our way. It wouldn't be unjust in our eyes because we would be gaining something.
PRISON EXPERIMENT
-Authority changes people because it makes them feel like they are in power. In just a couple of days it changed the college students who were pretending to be wardens from nice kids to mean prison caretakers. It breaks people out of their conformity and the power corrupts them. Systems naturally change people because it gives anyone on top power. It's the way they are set up that makes people believe they have all the power. They think they can do anything and to a certain extent they can. If there is a smart student who everyone likes and he does something bad he could probably talk his way out of it knowing that everyone will believe him. The system was set up to believe in those types of people in power. Everyone will believe the smart student and so he will be able to get away with whatever he wanted to. Just like people with power in systems they believe they will be able to get away with anything and so they change to take advantage of that.
