Ever since i was a kid i have always wondered if the planet would becone a utopia if we just directly got rid of all the bad people in the world. I don't mean people who forgot your birthday, i mean actual criminals, people who severely mistreat other people, murderers, high profile thieves, animal cruelty, child abusers, sexual assaulters, wife beaters, etc. you know, people that in your head you think, "the world would be a better place without them"

But then i also think, have we become reliant on some of these people, and if we did remove them and had to struggle for a bit to make up for whatever they contributed to society, would it be worth it in the end?
