The author, Aldous Huxley, conveyed the possible events that would take place if the government took complete control of our daily lives. He wrote in reflection of his own surroundings, of how his hometown of London may look in the year 2540, if they continued with the programs to end war, divergence, suffering, and unreceptive ruling. It defines exactly how everyday lives would be like, with no ability to utilize their voice or live the way they choose to live. This brought a large number of criticisms knocking on Huxley’s door. Conversely, many of the same seeds have been planted in America, which have created a similar scare as was in the classic piece of literature. Although the socialist and the communist movements have been around for several generations in America, it hasn’t taken much prevalence until this one. It’s preposterous that politicians are trying to put a great number of things under the exclusive control of the government. Let’s take the state of California for instance. In some parts of Los Angeles, dishonest officials have put restrictions on various areas, forbidding where fast food restaurants are allowed to set up new shops. That’s right. You can’t have a hamburger in certain places in South Los Angeles, whether you like it or not. On top of the petty matters they base their focus on, they intend to stretch out even further and conquer more than what they currently control. State and national politicians are trying to remove the admission to fast and easy payday loans, only to assemble enough votes to carry out their own self-interest. Undoubtedly, this further proves our government’s intention to stringently control our daily lives.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Post Courtesy of Personal Money Store&lt;br&gt;Professional Blogging Team&lt;br&gt;Feed Back:  1-866-641-3406&lt;br&gt;Home: &lt;a href="http://personalmoneystore.com/NoFaxPaydayLoans.html" rel="nofollow"&gt;http://personalmoneystore.com/NoFaxPaydayLoans....&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;Blog: &lt;a href="http://personalmoneystore.com/moneyblog/" rel="nofollow"&gt;http://personalmoneystore.com/moneyblog/&lt;/a&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">NoFaxPaydayLoans</dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 22 Oct 2008 03:46:31 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Make Art, Not War: Iran’s Gay Movement</title><link>http://blog.soulbird.org/2008/03/24/make-art-not-war-iran-gay-movement/#comment-3223603</link><description>The classic novel, Brave New World, was first published in 1932.
