This isn't new.

The book Freakonomics had a few references to companies and studies that did the exact same thing.

I'll go back and reread that section.

I'd suggest you read it...if it ever becomes a movie.

Don't watch much TV (outside of educational, historic, or instructional) or many movies.

Been meaning to read Freakonomics.

It is a movie and its on Netflix but that part wasnt in it. Its worth watching even if youve read the book already.
