World State good or bad

I think that the world state would be good but for the most part bad. I think that the state would be good because every one would be happy and wouldn't really know about death and other things that cause pain. The purpose of the world state is to limit pain and make everyone perfect. Although they are controlled and cant live their life they don’t know it so there is no pain. They live their lives thinking their society is perfect and are ignorant. The reason I believe this that this society is bad because they are not allowing people to live their lives without freedom. The people in this society don’t have the free will to think, make decisions for them selves. They are made without a history and a family. Without the two you can't really figure out where you came from or what has happened in the past. Like Lenina people in the society take soma when they don’t' feel good or want to get stuff out of their minds. They have no sense of problem solving for their selves. It is also bad because most of them can't experience the feeling of love being with a partner of the opposite sex or being loved by family. They like for everyone to be one and not have any personal relationship with anyone else. In conclusion, I think that this state is good because they don’t feel pain and don’t know how fake their society really is. The World State is bad because the society has no history, no personal relationships, and no free will.
