Explanation:

Explanation: In the given excerpt from "Harrison Bergeron" by Kurt Vonnegut, we can see the description of a society where everybody is forced to be equal, where is not allowed to be better than any person in any area, and to be sure that this law is followed, there are agents of the United States Handicapper General who are in vigilance all the time, this shows that there is something very wrong with society, because unable to accept equality in a normal situation, they needed a government-enforced equality.
