Answer:

Assuming you're talking about the "Harrison Bergeron" story, the author is basically trying to say that trying to equalize everyone isn't truly worth it as it will just bring more misery and unfairness for everyone. In that story, Harrison was the only one that seemed happy due to the fact that he refused to submit and go through with the equalizing process. Now I've only seen the film but Harrison in the film is quoted saying "You haven't made everybody equal. You've made them the same. And there's a big difference". Essentially by making everybody equal, everyone is the same. There is nothing that truly distinguishes one person from another if they are truly equal. Now whether that is a good thing or a bad thing, that is truly up to one's interpretation. Harrison's attitude was contagious and he looked strong and fulfilled due to following his own ideals. Everyone else was the opposite due to the fact that they couldn't do their own thing because of "equality" being for everyone.
