Yes...I think we have finally arrived at George Orwell's vision of "1984"...a bit late but we got there anyway. Bravo for us??? Are donkeys and pigs flying yet? If the Bush government tells us they are...we will believe it, right?
I guess that solar system is an conservative society where the elite few enjoy unprecedented prosperity and power. The rest of the society are told four things over and over again: "WAR IS PEACE" "FREEDOM IS SLAVERY" "IGNORANCE IS STRENGHT" "BIG BROTHER IS WACTHING"
