Because utopia cannot be achieved.
Why does Socialism fail EVERY. SINGLE. TIME?
So it can learn to get back up.
It's based on the initiation of force.
Socialism is a system which sanctions a monopoly on the legal initiation of force on innocent people by a small elite and their henchmen. These are their philosopher kings - the more-than-humans that claim the right to command their "lessers", or throw them in jail, or kill them, or any number of horrible things for the sake of "the good of the people"
What sort of person would such a system attract?
It would attract the most sociopathic among us: those who want to rule, those who want to loot, and those who want to receive those looted goods.
literally successful every single time.

Socialism is what built the middle class.
You'd be a malnourished peasant living in a 19th century economy without socialism.
"Every line of serious work that I have written since 1936 has been written, directly or indirectly against totalitarianism and for democratic Socialism as I understand it. In my opinion, nothing has contributed so much to the corruption of the original idea of socialism as the belief that Russia is a socialist country and that every act of its rulers must be excused, if not imitated. And so for the last ten years, I have been convinced that the destruction of the Soviet myth was essential if we wanted a revival of the socialist movement. The only thing for which we can combine is the underlying ideal of Socialism; justice and liberty. But it is hardly strong enough to call this ideal underlying. It is almost completely forgotten. It has been buried beneath layer after layer of doctnaire priggishness, party squabbles and half-backed progressivism until it is like a diamond hidden under a monition of dung. The job of the Socialist is to get it out again. Justice and liberty! Those are the words that have got to ring like a bugle across the world." - George Orwell
