Survey: Do you see any similarities between Orwell's "1984" and today's world?

I think a few of the Orwellian Prophocies are true... what do you think?

we are defiantly becoming a "nanny state".
I was told about a school, where the staff inspect the kids lunch box's, if the food in it is not deemed healthy, it is thrown out.
the kids are only allowed water, and the rule applies to staff as well.
how stupid is that.
I get cranky just thinking about this (trying not to rant now)
honestly, they tell me how to parent my child, but if he commits a crime, guess who's fault that will be!!!!
Hint: not them!!!
