Ответ:
He says that this equality where every one is same is not good and is like everyone has to bear the oppressive measures of the government. It is like being handicapped.
Explanation:
The basic message all through the short story "Harrison Bergeron" concerns the perils of complete equality. In Vonnegut's tragic America, the administration has altered the Constitution to make each resident totally equivalent in for all intents and purposes each part of life.
But Bergerson does not want to accept such kind of equality and says that people have been handicapped in the name of equality. He raises his voice against this and thus is a threat to the society and the government.
Ответ:
The best option is letter b) an individual’s right to freedom in relation to others.
Explanation:
We are all technically free. Even God gave us free will so that we could make our own choices concerning our actions. Yet, there are laws and rules which, if not obeyed, bring consequences in relation to our choices. The reason for that is our freedom being limited. As Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes said, "The right to swing my fist ends where the other man’s nose begins." That means I am free to do whatever it is that I want - as long as I don't interfere with someone else's freedom. The moment my freedom begins to hurt and harm others, it should be curbed. That is what laws are for: to protect everyone's right to be free and safe. I have the right to walk on the streets without being attacked by anyone. If someone attacks me, I no longer feel free to walk calmly. That person should suffer the consequences so that my freedom is respected. His freedom to do whatever he wanted ended when he endangered my freedom to walk safely.
