The equality factor would be terrible. If everyone was equal, the world would not function. Everyone would have the same skill sets and everyone would be able to get the same jobs. No one would want to have the lower class jobs. Also, society wouldn't be very interesting. There would be nothing to talk about. Everyone would be exactly the same so that nothing would be different. Society would just crumble. There wouldn't be any different social classes or different cultures because everyone is the same. There would be no individuality, resulting in the world being very boring and depressing. Overall, the world would one big giant blob of nothing. Another topic was Harrison. It was annoying that the parents forgot that Harrison was shot. But it was weird because it was like the parents didn't want to but they did anyway. Also, he wanted to be different than everyone else. He wanted his individuality and to be unique. He also uncovered a girls mask and danced with her, they also kissed. No one would've known how pretty she was and how unique she was. He wanted to have the individuality. But his death was for nothing. Everyone forgot about it and all of his work was for nothing.
