But we have failed to mention the messages contained in Orwell's "Animal Farm". In this tale about the animals taking control of the farm there is a proclamation that all are now equal. However, the pigs assume the animal leadership role and soon have all the power and privileges. The tale is one that truly displays the hypocrisy of governments that proclaim the absolute equality of all citizens. As the pigs of "Animal Farm announce, "All animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others."
