First of all, why is it that "utopia" always ends up meaning "communism"? Is it because it's a political system that actually works nowhere? That makes sense, I suppose.

Maybe I just want to go to the store, pull out my money, and buy my banana, without having to pretend to enjoy a 100-man round-the-world fuckfest.

They may decide my best ideas and inventions must be shared for free with others, giving me no compensation for them because abstracts like motivation, inspiration and creativity mean nothing in a market which determines fair trade values only by a (necessarily totally artificial and arbitrary) calculation of man-hours-per-item.
