I don't invest myself deeply in Star Trek and I don't watch much of it, but I hear a lot of people talking about so-called post-scarcity economies and the ST series pops up a lot with those. If the subject of post-scarcity economy pops up it is nearly unavoidable to dodge ST these days.

The fun part is that the the first time I heard from some entertainment outlet that scarceless economies would still have poor people, it was from Enemy at the Gates, in which a Soviet officer argued no matter how advanced a Soviet society became, there would always be somebody who didn't get the girl he wanted and thus he would be poor in comparison to others.
