There's no such thing as a utopia... Just the freedom to do better & improve anything that currently sucks. If people are free to find economically sustainable ways to improve what annoys them, then there are always jobs & everything generally gets better. This has been the case in every mostly free society we know of.

If no one is free to do anything without buying permission from incompetent control freaks then everything goes to shit. This has been the case in every authoritarian society we know of.

If some people can print money at the expense of everyone else, they are by definition parasites, & will inevitably become detached control freaks.

No forced funding means no rules can be sustained that people won't voluntarily pay to protect. Sound money means there are no impossible to defeat structural parasites. Those things form the sort of foundation where people are more likely to be rewarded for merit & fiscal responsibility.
