If we look at history, it is clear that since time immemorial, people have always wanted to create an ideal society but have been unsuccessful. In the following essay, I intend to discuss what makes an ideal society and how we can create one.
An ideal society is a society where the needs of the people regardless of their race, religion or wealth would be met. Many great thinkers, such as Plato, Thomas More and Dr Martin Luther King Jr. have offered their opinions on this to the public over the years. However, these dreams failed because different people have different ideas about a perfect society. To make it happen, either the ideals of all the people have to be fulfilled, or all the people would have to have the same ones.
Imagine a society with no crime, no terrorism, no warfare, no conflicts of cultures, no racism, no gender discrimination, no poisoned tongues, no killing, no lying, no stealing, no adultery and no excuses. Such a society can never exist. It would be wrong even to think of one. A perfect society needs some kind of social inequality, or as I call it, a distinction inability. Those in the higher strata of society would be there because of their superior abilities and have greater responsibilities and, therefore, a higher social standing. An ideal society should have some struggle. If you had no struggle in life would you be happy? No, because that takes all the fun and enjoyment out of the difficulty, the losing, the failures, and the overcoming, the victory, the success.
There are many ways in which we can make an ideal society. First of all, there must be a democracy and a strong government which has the ability to rule over the country. It should try to make the citizens' lives better by making better social and financial conditions to live. There should be no corruption in the government. Finally, I believe, one of the most necessary things in the ideal society is freedom. No people and no society are happy and ideal when they are not free. However, we must remember that – ‘One’s freedom ends there where other’s starts’. If we will feel free and do not disturb others freedom we will have an ideal society. An ideal society would allow complete freedom to everybody and complete individuality.
To sum up, I pen down saying that, a perfect society is difficult to attain as everyone has different concepts of an ideal society. However, if we all respect our freedom and in doing so know our limitations so that others can enjoy their freedom then it can be called an ideal society.

and how we can create one.
An
ideal
society
is a
society
where the needs of the
people
regardless of their race, religion or wealth would
be met
.
Many
great thinkers, such as Plato, Thomas More and Dr Martin Luther King Jr. have offered their opinions on this to the public over the years.
However
, these dreams failed
because
different
people
have
different
ideas
about a perfect
society
. To
make
it happen, either the ideals of all the
people
have to
be fulfilled
, or all the
people
would
have to
have the same ones.
Imagine a
society
with no crime, no terrorism, no warfare, no conflicts of cultures, no racism, no gender discrimination, no poisoned tongues, no killing, no lying, no stealing, no adultery and no excuses. Such a

needs
some
kind of social inequality, or as I call it, a distinction inability. Those in the higher strata of
society
would be there
because
of their superior abilities and have greater responsibilities and,
therefore
, a higher social standing. An
ideal

because
that takes all the fun and enjoyment out of the difficulty, the losing, the failures, and the overcoming, the victory, the success.

freedom
we will have an
