Hattenhaucer’s narrator in is story, “The Politics of Kurt Vonnegut’s ‘Harrison Bergeron,’” articulates that an egalitarianism society, where everyone is equal and has equal opportunity, would be non beneficial. He categorizes America’s supreme characteristics as intellect, physical appearance, and having a strong drive in sports. The narrator bases these off of older practices of epistemology, aesthetics, but leaves out ethics, and he goes around the ethics of sports to not contradict himself.
