So if he wants to make the world a place where people don't need antidepressants anymore, how about he abolishes capitalism and let every person have a house without having to pay money for it, and let everyone grow our own gardens, let everyone live anywhere we want, travel is free, food costs nothing, if people have talents and skills that other people want to learn, then we teach & learn & share & barter

    Nah, it's utopia.

    The only reason Utopia doesn't work is because there have always been dishonest greedy manipulative scamsters among us who ruin everything for the honest good people. So part of my Utopian vision is that those dark energy people will be identified then sexually sterilized then launched on a one-way trip to Mars where they can live out the rest of their lives of greed & manipulation & lies among their own like-minded scamsters.

    I read that to mean, sadly: "Utopia doesn't work because it is contrary to human nature."

    Unfortunately, yes, our brains are still wired almost exactly how they were when we were hunter-gatherers; we just stuff it with more knowledge now.

    Back then, sure, greed was a necessary survival instinct to have food over the winters, and hand-outs were risky.

    We haven't adapted to the modern world, and the abundance available to us.
