I like your refrain.
But this:
it also implies that a good system will beat a bad person
sounds a bit utopian to me. Does good systems exist (or will ever exist)?

Maybe it is utopian or maybe you have to think a good system can beat a bad person, unless he perverts the system.
That was the American founders goal, right? To create a system that didn't require good men for its proper functioning.
It's also the idea Adam Smith articulated about markets: i.e. it's not out of generosity that the baker provides you with bread.
