V for Vendetta

This movie opens my mind to what the future may hold each and everytime I watch it. Yes not one person will single handingly save a country by his sword mastery, but the movie can open the eyes of the public, if they are smart enough, to realize the path a country may lead them. I do not believe the US will drug their youth inorder for a person to take charge and have asolute control of the nation.

I do believe that aspects of the movie does occur today. For example the gorvenment was taping and listening to every conversation around the city listening if anyone is against the government, or breaking one of the many laws. I see this today in the patriot act where the government is looking into people emails, phone calls, what people are searching in the library inorder to get a hint of a terrorist attack. But spying on the general public and not allowing civilians the right to privacy I believe is ridiculous.

Also I saw how Bush used fear tactics just like the leader in V for Vendetta inorder to get their way. There was no evidence for nuclear weapons, and Iraq had no threat to us, but Bush was able to use fear from 9/11 inorder to maybe try and finish off what his father started. The leader in V used the same tactics in order to get his power by spreading a virus and being the only one to have a cure.

I believe the public has to open their eyes and realize where a government may be wrong, and they should stand up for their right, but not alone. They would have to stand up for their rights together, united as one.
