I have seen the movie...
But I'll give the book a try. Thanks for the heads up.
Sad thing is, seems we're living a slow-motion, low-budget tv mishmash of 1984, Fahrenheit 357(?) brave new world, Logan's run, and a few other sci-fi stories.
One of the things that amazes me though that seems to play out through all those kinds of books ,
and seems the most consistent with reality, is the compliance and\or outright embrace of much of society with whatever the dominant oppression or horror is.
The main characters usually find themselves struggling against, not just the crazy system, but the majority of people who go along with it.
Out of fear, ignorance, being deceived, personal security or gain, blind obedience or some weird near religious devotion.

It is proper to take alarm at the first experiment on our liberties. The freeman of America did not wait till usurped power had strengthened itself by exercise, and entangled the question in precedents. James Madison
Live as free people, yet without employing your freedom as a pretext for wickedness; but live at all times as servants of God. 1 Peter 2:16
