Explore the ethical controversies of financial markets. Should you be able to buy a vote, citizenship, or college admission? Would you bet on someone else’s life—or, more accurately their death date? What about paying to see the exploitation of a person?

It highlights the fact that human beings are not always rational, have limits to their self-control, and are influenced by their own biases.
