I knew about “Harrison Bergeron” but I like the law review article:

Mr. Goldberg, you might want to read Kurt Vonnegut’s story “Harrison
Bergeron” from “Welcome to the Monkey House” on discrimination against the
ugly and stupid. It has one of the best opening paragraphs ever:
“The year was 2081, and everybody was finally equal. They weren’t only equal
before God and the law. They were equal every which way. Nobody was smarter
than anybody else. Nobody was better than anybody else. Nobody was stronger
or quicker than anybody else. All this equality was due to the 211th, 212th
and 213 Amendments to the Constitution, and to the unceasing vigilance of
the Unites States Handicapper General.”
Smart people have to wear headpieces that emit annoying sounds to break up
their chains of thought. Pretty people have to wear masks. Graceful people,
such as dancers and athletes, have to wear sandbags on their legs to make
them as clumsy as the rest of us. Well-spoken people have to have voice
distorters to make the tone-deaf feel better. Harrison is a smart, handsome
and talented teenager who was such a problem (he keeps breaking out of the
restraints) that he was locked up. Then he escapes…
Harrison Bergeron was made into a so-so movie a few decades ago.
There is also a law review article by Adam Cohen, now at the ACLU, which was
written when he was at Harvard Law. He argues for the end to discrimination
against ugly people, “Facial Discrimination: Extending Handicap Law to
Employment Discrimination on the Basis of Physical Appearance.” The citation
is 100 Harvard Law Review 2035 (1987). It is not signed, as it is a student
comment, but in an essay in the December 6, 1993 edition of Time magazine
(p.96), Margaret Carlson identifies him as the author of the article.
Very truly yours,
