"Wheels must turn steadily, but cannot turn untended. There must be men to tend them, men as steady as the wheels upon axles, sane men, obedient men, stable in contentment." (Huxley 42).
Here, Huxley describes how we need constant men to run the government. This can only happen with new advancements in technology. in this quote, Mustapha Mond is giving a speech on how life in Brave New World has changed and states that before the population system was put in place, the human race would go through drastic levels in population change as the food levels would only support a certain amount of people. with the help of technology, we can keep the population at its maximum. With the help of technology we can prevent starvation and the surplus of goods simply by regulation births. Over-population can be fixed with the help of technology.
