Orwell's allegory presents a rather unflattering picture of what can happen when people readily accept whatever "truth" is told to them. He also points out how allowing those we have placed in authority over us handle everything from birth ratges to retirement can have dangerous consequences. Orwell's point is that it doesn't matter what type of government system we have; if we as individuals do not search for the truth ourselves and honestly think about what those in authority say and do, we may end up in a worse state than the one in which we currently find ourselves. Given the current political climate, this is a book people should read-- and read carefully, thinking about what we're being told every day in the media.
