idk but I would like to know how they get dome people to be dilithium miners, as like in a moneyless society, what benefit they have in return.
Would love to explore that.
Moneyless society doesn't mean a post-scarcity society. There's clearly poverty on some Federation fringe worlds. Only Earth and the other core worlds really are paradise. The others have always been implied to work towards their bettering but not being quite there yet.
@A_Chilean_Cyborg @ValueSubtracted You might be interested in Ursula K. LeGuin’s book THE DISPOSSESSED. In one scene, the character from the anarchist planet explains to a character from the capitalist planet how they get people to do the dirty or dangerous jobs.
