Sometimes I have thought about thoughts of dystopia and the control society. Somewhere I read the story about the Earth, and the future, what was not seem very bright. In the system based on the modification of the atmosphere, and there would be always a cloud layer above the cities, what kept them in shadows, and every square millimeter of the city were covered by cement plates, what were denied to make food in that area. Also, the purpose of the clouds was to deny the sunlight in the city areas, because the unauthorized plantages were impossible.
This idea of this book, which name I don't remember was taken from the city walls of medieval time. The purpose of those walls was explained to regular people for defending the citizens, but the real purpose was to control the food supply to the cities. Also, clothes and another kind of stuff must be brought from the countryside. That kind of asset was also used in the propaganda, where the forests around the city were claimed to be full of bandits, and in the medieval period, there might be persons, who believed, that there were not world outside city gates. And that made people easier to control.
Outside of the cities were the agricultural societies, what lived in the Medieval time, and the reading the books were not allowed in those societies. All technology would be prohibited and in the cities, the people had all kind of technology, for making their life easier. This separation between those societies, what of course was on the Earth had their mission in the supporting of the leaders of that society. The mission of the "outsiders" or the persons, who are not living in the cities, was to feed the population of the cities, and if there would be rebellion in the cities, would the leader just cut the food supply.
And if there will be the rebellion in the countryside, that rebellion can be crushed by using tanks. Or the leaders can use the so-called soft method and destroy the plantages by using some mushrooms, and of course, the seed corn was sent to the cities for storage. In that book, the hero stole one potato and made clones about it. That sent the leader away from power, this might be some kind of science fiction, but the food supply is the very good thing to control human beings.
