‘“If my quarry eludes me for three whole days, he wins the game. If I find him "--the general smiled--" he loses”’ (Connell 9).
Citizens should be able to have the right to change and oppose the laws. You don’t have to be a part of something if you don’t want to. A citizen should never have to be given a decision that both leads them to death one way or another. The government would always have the upper hand and the citizens who are left in the dust need to fight against it.
Harrison Bergeron
“Every twenty seconds or so, the transmitter would send out some sharp noise to keep people like George from taking unfair advantage of their brains” (Vonnegut 1).
Citizens needed a leader that would impact on the way they saw things. It was okay to be different. The handicaps are restricting people to be who they are. The citizens need to change the laws to better themselves so that everyone is unique and doesn’t have to be ashamed of what they were made to be. The government shouldn’t and doesn’t have the right to tell a person who they should be and look like.
