Everything from us fighting wars all over the world to have "peace"
The govt. has now intruded into every aspect of our lives. We can't do much of anything that isn't "approved" by the authorities these days. They search us, they take our belongings and our property, they dictate what we can and can't see and read...all in the name of being "Free"
And we're kept ignorant as our news organizations report completely different versions of events than the rest of the world and we are actually encouraged to NOT learn different languages (other civilized countries citizens almost always are multilingual...while we actually make laws to force "English Only")
Orwell hit it right on the head. He was just off a couple of decades.
