Answer: In "Harrison Bergeson" the goverment created a society where everyone was made exactly equal by torturous and inhumane devices. They warped the idea that "all men are created equal" by changing it from "all men are equally important to the world no matter what the circumstance" to "all men are literally equal in every way, no matter what we have to do to make it that way." I do not agree with this interperatation because it does not help the society in any way to have everyone exactly equal in all things. Instead of created a solid base of fairness, it creates a crumbling foundation. With everyone being average intelligence, new ideas were most likely scarce and illogical, entertainment was probably bland, boring, and meaningless. This interperataion created a community that was more unequal than it started with and flawed in many ways.
