Three Themes - FEED

Three themes I think the author, M.T. Anderson was creating in his book FEED that relates to the 21st century are:
1. Corporations monitor and manipulate citizens. In the book Feed, Violet and Quendy like to buy cool stuff. Quendy buys shoes and then decides after she walks walks out of the store that she does not like them anymore. So many of us today have many pair of expensive designer shoes that we wear ans dislike after the style changes. The feed can help you make buying decisions that can be hard. It knows things before you do. This is like our computers today. So many of us will research on the computer before we buy.
2. I found the family life in feed to be similar to ours today. The book says, dad does not talk much. He is too busy. Mom is busy with younger brother to pay any attention. Mom is working. Father saves for daughters trip to the moon. Some adolesence are self-centered. Making babies with genetics. I think this relates to many families today. Working parents, teens to involved with themselves, parents giving more to thier children then ever before and the talk of genetics in the future.
3. The lesions were very interesting. I related this to the tatoos of today. The book says, everyone is showing of lesions. Everyone is getting them. They are a fashion statement. I had a hard time understanding the point behind getting soars on their body but related it to tatoos of today.
