People are just as likely to torture now as they were in Milgram's 1960s experiment.The difference in this experiment is that not only were people asked to shock a protesting "subject," but at one point in the experiment, a volunteer would come in and refuse to continue, in front of the participant. And... 63% of the participants continued anyway,

No matter how many times people try to argue otherwise, people do not change.
