Harrison and the Empress "Kiss the Ceiling" and abandoned all laws of gravity. 
ALL SHALL BE HANDICAPPED!!!
Throughout the short story, "Harrison Burgeron," Vonnegut employs many examples of satire to suggest how uniqueness among humans should be appreciated since it makes society healthier and more interesting. In Vonnegut's setting, the citizens are "all made equal" by eliminating any uniqueness, gifts, and talents of people through enforcing handicaps, masks, blind glasses, harnesses, and bags of weights. This causes society to become dull, unsuccessful, and lame.  Ironically, this pursuit of equality is hypocritical since each person is given a different disadvantage depending upon their own abilities.  Finally, when Harrison opposes the tyrannical attempt at equality and instead promotes both his and the dancers' unique qualities the scene instantly becomes colorful and interesting, further suggesting how the differences among humans make the society healthier.
