A bit of inane question.I would be thinking along the lines of something like where everyone has access to what they need (including healthcare and education) and what you could reasonably expect to want i.e. maximised quality of life and happiness for the greatest number of people possible. I thought this would be simple stuff
Not really. In your second to last sentence you state what I was aiming at. Not everyone will be happy with the "utopia" they're in. As a result those who are unhappy will want to be happy and then disrupt the "utopia". What maximizes happiness for one doesn't always maximize happiness for all.
