Compartion between life in the World State and the United States
In the World State, people are happy about death, they keep the best toys in the hospital for dying. So, when they want to get the toys, they have to go to the hospital. In this way, they would think dying is not a bad thing. In the World State, people couldn't have love and get married, too. They have to sleep with all the people in the society. If you love someone, or date with someone for long time. It seems unnormal in the society. People would think you are a weair person. They would get angry with you if you tell them.
In the other hand, in the United States, people afraid of death. They think death is a scary thing. but people could have love and get married in the United States. They could choose who ever they like to date and get married with them.
In both place, people take drugs. In the World State, people take somas. They woild feel happy after thay take them. In the United States, people drink alcohols. They often drink alcohols when they are happy and depress. They use alcohol to express their feelings.
As a result, life in the World State and the United States have some similarities and differences. People in both places take drugs. But in the World State, people feel happy about death, and they can't love and get married with other people. In the United States, people could have love and get married with someone they liked.
Rules that I would crate in my Utopia
If I could creat a Utopia, and I could creat any rules. I would creat following rules.
1. Be honest. Everyone must be honest about everyting in the society. In today's world, there are too many liars and lies. This makes people don't know which sentence is right, which sentence is wrong. Lies make people don't trust anything. They also make people suspend about everyting. Only honest could make people feel the world is real and comfortable.
2.Work no more than five hours per day. People in the society have to go to work, but do not work too hours. In this way, they would suppoort the society's economic and few hours of work won't make them feel tired.
3.No cars and traffic. The gasoline would cause air pollusion. So, if we don't have cars in the society, then, we would save money for other things, and we don't have to worry abou air pollusion
problems.4.Everyone should get education. So, people could read and write. They don't have to ask other people to read letter for them. They could do everything by themselves. They would be more independence,
5.Everyone must be happy in the society. If and only people happy, their life could be better. They don't have to worry about anything in their life.
6.No fighting. If there doesn't have any fights in the society, then the society would be peaceful. No one would get hurt and injured if there is no fight.
7.No hunger in the society. Everyone should have enough food to eat. Only make people feel full, so, they could do better job and feel comfortable.
8. Everyone is equal. No one is better than others. In this way, people won't feel inferior, and they don't have to worry about other people would laugh at them.
