Omelas The Utopia

     In Ursula K Le Guins short story, "The Ones Who Walk Away From Omelas", the reader is presented with the idea that the despondency of one child can cause the satisfaction of thousands of others. ... However, we as a people, speaking generally of our generation and freedoms, are apparently far less simple than the inhabitants of Omelas, as our welfare doesnt depend on cruelty towards other people. ...

     In the dictionary, the word "utopia" is described as an ideally perfect place, especially in its moral, social, and political aspects. Apparently, according to this definition, Omelas is not a utopia.
