In this world where people can acquire anything they need or want, we must ask ourselves, "Is the government controlling us?" Both the governments of A Brave New World and those of the United States of America offer birth control pills and have abortion clinics available to all, thus making it very easy to acquire birth control pills and abortion operations.
