Progress would be maximized if all the resources are spent on the people most qualified to help society. A Utopian society, as perfect as the one

Achieving a utopian society is impossible due to the nature of a utopia, conflicting beliefs, and eventual corruption. The most prevalent reason for the failure of a utopia is that the concept is only a fictional society and therefore can not be successfully recreated. The

From Plato's The Republic to Karl Marx's Communist Manifesto, the search for a perfect social state has never stopped; its ultimate goal of achieving a human society that exists in absolute harmony with all due social justice, however, has proved to be woefully elusive.
