"Serving" political ends: the national-service act that President Obama signed on April 21 was designed more for generating Democratic clout than it was for helping others.(NATIONAL SERVICE)
[ILLUSTRATION OMITTED]
The nightmarish future of Aldous Huxley's novel Brave New World is a world where people are bred for servitude to government and hypnotized by repetition for serving a totalitarian state with the three-word slogan "Community. Identity. Stability." Community means "government," and identity is only important in the context of service to that government. Every human is hypnotized from infancy with the words: "Every one works for every one else. We can't do without any one." Everyone was liable for service to the state, and that servitude was couched in terms that implied a phony voluntary, even charitable, eagerness.
