Schindler and Stern

In the beginning Schindler and Stern had very different views. Schindler being a business man had a somewhat selfish view of doing things. Stern recognizing that Schindler was German always was skeptical of Schindler's plans. We could see this when Schindler offered Stern drinks yet time and time again Stern would deny his offer. As time went on there needs for each other quickly evened out. Stern needing Schindler to keep him alive along with other Jews. Schindler needed Stern in order to run his business effectively and make money. In class today we saw yet another change in their relationship. There needs for each other were still present but they connected on another level when Stern finds out Schindler has agreed to buy almost all the people living in the camp from Goeth. Stern must have realized at this point that Schindler really cared about these people, although he is just making another factory that fact that he spent so much of his money to buy the workers showed his sympathy. Schindler had said himself he had more than enough money to move away and never work again but he spent the money he earned from the workers to buy them back. This potentially saved them from death for the time being because the rest of the workers were sent to Auschwitz.
