Sure, utopian vision rhetoric never delivers and usually makes things worse.
We don't have any elected officials preaching any utopian vision right now.  We haven't for decades.  You're shadowboxing.

[BLEEP] are you talking about? Almost everything on the democratic platform is designed to eradicate some injustice. The right has its fair share of utopian ideas, too, like the war on terror. Anything that doesn't allow breathing room for the natural predation that falls in this broken world is an attempt to achieve utopia, and you don't undo solid, successful practices to eliminate anomalies. It will result in tyranny.
