In the novel people are made in the Central London Hatchery and Conditioning Centre where they are brainwashed into a certain mindset pertaining to which level of the caste system they belong to. The whole idea for cloning is so that the production of children is not dependent on men and women.

Gamma, Delta, and Epsilon are considered to be inferior and are created at a faster rate than Alphas and Betas. There is more of a need for lower class people because of all the jobs that need to be done such as being a mailman, garbageman, or a plumber.

Working conditions for children were frequently hazardous and unsanitary. As seen in document 2, the working conditions for these children in the factories were deplorable. They were filthy, dusty, and cramped, making them an unsuitable environment for children to spend so much time in every day.

Child labor began to decline as the labor and reform movements grew and labor standards in general improved, giving working people and other social reformers more political clout to demand legislation regulating child labor.
In Aldous Huxley’s novel “Brave New World” the world has fallen into an authoritarian order, of which control is kept through constant distraction and suppression of information. Though through this remains communities of “savages” who reject the new world order and have continued more traditional human life in reservations. It is in one of the these reservations the Aldous Huxley introduces the character John, a foil to the society he is introduced to.

In the Novel Fahrenheit 451, one way that the government controls their society is by outlawing owning and reading any type of literature. There are a couple reasons why the government does this.
