In the movie "The Matrix" Neo, a computer programmer needs to make a choice, take the blue pill which he'll remain in the same world and it's not real or take the red pill which is the one that will show him the real world and the knowledge. If i were in Neo's position my choice would be the red pill because who wouldn't like to be in the real world. The reasons are that the knowledge i will never learn being in a fake world where humans would be living in a fantasy world and nothing will change by taking the blue pill, everything will remain the same by machines controlling the humans.
The red pill is the one that will take you to the real world; therefore, everyone could have knowledge. Having knowledge is an important things in our lives, without knowledge the world won't workthe way it is now. The knowledge is the power. Nowadays, people who has the power of knowledge are the one that succes in the real world. For instance, Steve Jobs a drop out college, a man who never finishes high school and now in these days is the CEO of the apple, he is a good sample of how having a knowledge we can succes in the real life.
The other reason why i will take the red pill is because living in a fantasy world or a world of lies where humans are commanded by others or machines, i don't think that it will be helpful. As an example of how is living without knowing the real world is the show called "The Truman Show" where there is this guy whose name is Truman and since he born, he was filmed 24/7 without realizing that where he was living was a fantasy world because everything was perfect, no problems, no bad people, everything was a routine but at the end he found the truth and decided to leave the fantasy world and go to the real world which is something similar as the pills, take the blue one( fantasy) or take the red one (real world).
