Faulty premise -- we can. We don't need a nanny state to do it for us. (Unless you're a big fan of government controlling every aspect of our lives.)
George Orwell's 1984
Physical Jerks - Morning Exercises. Participation was mandatory for all outer party members. These exercises took place every day 3 minutes after the morning wake-up call, which for office workers was at 7:15 am.
Telescreen - Two way television. There is only one channel, and the telescreen may not be turned off except by members of the Inner Party. All party members has one in every room of their apartment. Because of this, the party member is never out of earshot of the latest party propaganda, and not one second goes by that they are not under the surveillance of the party.
