Freedom ( Harrison Bergeron)

When you hear the word freedom, you think of being able to act, think, be they way you want to be. This book, "Harriosn Bergeron", is showing us a world were people are supposed to be all equal, but, to me, they are certainly not free. No way do the people in this story have any type of freedom. If you are smart, or thought that your intellegince was above normal every 20 seconds you got a new head ache. If you were strong, you were weighed down my lead pellets hung from your neck. If you were beautiful, you had to wear a hideous mask. People are not free to think how they want to. The definition of freedom is, the state of being free or at liberty rather than in confinement or under physical restraint and those that are stronger in this story are in physical restraint, they are being held down by lead pellets. Another definition is exemption from external control, interference, regulation, etc. Everyone is controlled over what they wear, what they think, and how strong they are. If the government really thinks they are making everyone equal. They aren't doing very good job at it. People aren't becoming more stupid or weaker but are being tortured, while dumb people don't get anything.
I would hate to live in this type of world. Getting consent head aches, being weighed down. No one is suppoesd to be treated equal, its not the way people are and it can never be that way. I need real freedom. I need to be able to beat people, it is the way I am. Its the way everyone is. This world would never works. The people have been around for millions of years and if no is equal now, i don't thik in a milion year anything will be different.
