The world we live in isn't just dystopic, it isn't just stupid, trying to describe all the ways it sucks just makes for a really boring story.

I agree with your point about the difficulty of designing a good system for millions of humans to play well together.

I just have a small nitpick. People do not place money over other people, they place their own needs and wants over other people, money is just one tool for it.

Whichever ideal system we could design would need to take that into consideration. And sociopaths, which is a whole other thing.
