Light Bulb Conspiracy

After watching the film "Light Bulb Conspiracy" my perspective about the industries has completely changed. Before, I taught that industries tried to make their products be better each day but instead it was the total opposite. The majority of factories make an effort to make their products cheaper so they could sell them at high prices. Besides, they try to make low quality products in order for people to buy more. For example, in a company called Phillips, dedicated to create bulbs, which what makes the light is the wire.  For them its better that the bulbs have to be change more often. They have to create more fragile bulbs so it will break easier and the people buy them often. Before, a bulb resisted 2500 hours and now the light resist just for 1000 hours.

There are other cases about this subject were they make the ink spread and trow more than it should normally trow. Even if they have the solution for that, they prefer to leave it like that so they could have more sales, making the people consume and buy more ink. At the same time, some times people need to buy another printer because people say that like their printer consume a lot of ink they have to buy another printer. This is how the seller lie to us, saying that a new a technologic printer will consume lesser but instead is the totally opposite; a new printer consume more ink.

Kep Stevens was a designer and a constructor who created several things like a toaster, cars, and homes. He was recognized for his strange houses. One time, he created a house that people taught it was a bus station because no one had seen a house that big and strange. He was famous for his originality and strange designs. Without him there will not exist, security guards, malls or designers.
