Harrison Begeron
Harrison Bergron... This story was a bit trippy, it reminded me a lot of Fahrenheit 451 with how the government has taken control of free thought. It kinda made me think about democrats too, how they like a lot of government involved and how may be that will take the turn for the worst... It is very possible you know. How crazy would it be to be limited by handicaps that the government felt you should wear? In fact all the handicaps did not make people equal but it made the more different. The prettier you are the uglier the mask you were forced to wear. What about deaf and blind people, I mean we should be equal to them too, shouldn't we? Just gauge out your eyes plug your ears and pull out your tongue and you'd still be a threat to a paranoid government...... So what is a person to do? I think the government in the story would be perfectly happy if people just started suicide clubs and then they wouldn't have to deal with anything anymore... Interesting... don't you think?
