Would the Star Trek world ever work?

Utopia does not mean communist. You are misusing the description, thought it's a GREAT point. Socialist gov'ts is what you mean. Communism is a bastardization of what Socialism was supposed to be...b/c it was used a tool to put people in power. However, utopia, where those issues don't come up, is a very Waldenesque like concept, and not necessairly Socialist and obviously not very capitalistic.

it's fuckin Star Trek...they had no clue in what they were saying, they were just predicting some childish greed would be gone. would it really...prob not. if we were in space, land would be the new greed.
