Utopia is what a lot of people dream of. Or at least people who live in the terror of violence. Utopia is defined as "an imaginary perfect world where everyone is happy". Of course this is completely impossible, but this doesn't stop people from thinking about it. All the world's problems...gone. A lot of people want it to be like that, but the only way to do it is to kill everybody(there won't be anybody to be unhappy).
But why is it impossible?
Man's and (probably) all the living beings on this earths' inherent evilness prevent us from achieving an utopia. Technically, a utopia coould be achieved like in "The Giver" but with a huge infringement on human rights(killing people without them knowing that they're dying). All of us humans have an instinct to get the most we can out others for our own benefit. So, no matter how perfect the system is, no one will be completely contented because it is our nature to want more...and more...and more...and more...and more...and more...and more...and more...
I suppose we'll just have to live with it.
