Read Vonneguts Harrison Bergeron
That’s a good book. I assume you were referencing the Handicapper General?
It’s a loony world we live in! I worked in a bookstore over the Christmas holiday and they actually hired a deaf woman to answer the phones. I’d have to duck down behind the counter to hide my laughter every time she picked up the phone and screamed “WHAAAATTTT???” down the receiver.
Love that story!!
