  " Euphoric, narcotic" it is all about soma. It's the best tool the government has for controlling its population. It sedates, calms, and most importantly distracts a person from realizing that there's actually something very, very wrong – the citizens of the World State are enslaved.
  
  “You do look glum! What you need is a gramme of soma.”

  Ford
  Throughout Brave New World, the citizens of the World State substitute the name of Henry Ford, the early twentieth-century industrialist and founder of the Ford Motor Company, wherever people in our own world would say “Lord”. This demonstrates for technology—specifically the efficient, mechanized factory production of goods that Henry Ford pioneered that even at the level of casual conversation and habit, religion has been replaced by reverence.
