2. What is your reaction to the ending of the section? What is good and/or bad about the type of society outlined by Socrates?
Restricting the arts will not benefit the men, that's for sure. In doing this he's restricting the mens creative release and I'm predicting that this will start a revolt against Socrates. This might make his society last a while longer but in the end the men will realize that they do not need to comply to the stupid laws Socrates has laid out to them. This will definitely have a bad effect on this community and restrictions such as this one, is definitely going to be broken some time or later.
