George, like many other people in this dystopian world, is forced to wear a handicap to drag him down to the general level of mediocrity. As George is intelligent this means that his thoughts must be constantly disrupted. This is achieved by making him wear a radio that emits noise at regular intervals. Just for good measure, he needs to wear weights round his neck to compensate for his physical strength.
Strange as it may seem, George is quite accepting of his handicaps. Although that may have something to do with the fact that the regular blasts of radio noise don't give him much time to think about them. Whatever the reason, George just tries to get on with life as best he can. He's certainly no rebel like his son, Harrison. The laws may very well be unjust and frankly absurd, but George believes that if people start to pick and choose which laws to obey, then society will descend into anarchy and chaos.
