This concept was run and controlled by Diana Moon Glampers, who appeared to be of average intelligence, but because everyone else was now below average, due to handicaps, she was more powerful. Her character for the most represented the laws themselves. While some were inspired by Harrison’s actions, when the general, Diana Moon Glampers, shot him, the people were scared back to their previous, below average, mental state, and felt under control of the government. What I found interesting is that it appeared no one in the government had handicaps, yet they enforced handicaps very strictly on the citizens. “…the Handicapper General, came into the studio with a double-barreled ten-gauge shot gun… Diana Moon Glampers loaded the gun again. She aimed it at the musicians and told them they had ten seconds to get their handicaps back on”
