QUOTE FROM ARTICLE:
"Most people would view this basic sketch of the new world order as pure science fiction.
It is not.
Under Technocracy, every person would have to give up his freedom.
Strive, as an individual to achieve what you profoundly desire? OUTMODED.
Own Property? OUTMODED.
Vote out technocratic rulers? OUTMODED.
Opt out of automation on any front? OUTMODED.
Assert any of the rights in the Bill of Rights)? OUTMODED.
Demand the freedom to voice an opinion, judgment, or fact that others might find offensive or disturbing? OUTMODED.
None of this even begins to cover the interior changes that would be made to human beings, through genetic reconfiguration and other techniques.
In other words, this is Huxley’s Brave New World. But as Huxley was writing his novel, the nascent technocratic movement was already underway."
