Borrowing and lending, through efficient and transparent markets, have been a massive contributing factor to our nation’s and our civilization’s simply-incredible ingenuity, opportunity and progress. Borrowing and lending are not inherently bad; far from it.
However living continually in debt, by spending wastefully, and beyond one’s means, is sinful, destructive, and enfeebling. Of this there is no doubt.
I believe what you say to be true. Corruption at all levels of our society is the true issue. Utopia would actually be achievable if it weren't for corruption. That said, GET PHYSICAL! Get it now!
We are all corrupt. We are all sinners. There will be no utopia on earth; any promises of such are destructive lies, as anybody witness to (especially recent) history must be painfully aware.
The best and most successful and most humane and least corrupt forms of government and civic order, because they are based on the true (Biblical) awareness of man’s fallen nature (and his inherent value), explicitly seek to protect from the tyranny that a desire for order has the potential to turn into.

Every attempt to create Utopia results in a dystopian nightmare.
