The Light Bulb conspiracy documentary feature

This is a great documentary about planned obsolescence that opened my eyes to some things. It shows how products are made purposefully to fail withing a set number of years, making people buy new ones and causing a huge waste and pollution problem. The prime example is that there are actually light bulbs that were manufactured to last decades and even a century, but these were buried.

it is very sad what this does to third world countries

yes the documentary talks about this

children sift through this waste and it is very bad for their health

yeah it's really sad, thank the corporations for that

Planned obsolescence then? Makes sense

yeah it's really unfortunate for everyone (except the corporations). very sad

They were buried...the rabbit hole is just too deep ..
