Welcome To The Monkey House by Kurt Vonnegut

This story was very interesting. It had a great description of the setting and the plot was very unique. It was like foreseeing the future with a over capacity population and thus very unique ways to keep population under limit. It was very interesting that Vonnegut came up with such a story in the late 60s but it was most likely because that was when the baby boom occurred and he probably thought it would go on and we would eventually overflow with people, which, who knows, might happen in the future. Vonnegut wrote a way we could deal with it with the way technology is going, we could just be able to come up with such a pill and kill people with consent. It created a unique image of the future about like 200 years from now. He created an image to pretty much, in a way, warn us that life will be like a living hell if we let technology control us and take over. This story overall was very interesting and different compared to other stories we have read.
