How i love government control
I was fascinated when i started reading about how they control the society in 1984. I thought it was very interesting in how they are at constant war in order to reduce the excess of resources. By reducing this excess of resources they are able to keep the people impoverished. Being impoverished makes the people need a totalitarian government in order to run there society. They also create this constant war so they have a place to channel all of their anger so that they don't channel their anger at the government or any individuals in the government. It is my belief they also created the brotherhood for two reasons. One to once again channel their anger at someone besides the government and two it is a way for the government to be in control of the rebellion. By being in control of the rebellion they can weed out people slowly and prevent it from getting out of control.

Exactly. Do you have a question to focus your essay on yet? If not, I can totally see you doing something with how/why the government creates a society like this. Or what the "benefits" of this type of society would be.
