I don’t understand how they can ban creativity. It’s everywhere. They say it ties with originality, which leads to desire for power. We still have some things, our thoughts. How are they going to regulate that?” _____________________________________ Allister Hex is trouble-some, yet caring teen who doesn't feel that the sense of creativity should be taken away from them.
