STAT TREK was about a UTOPIAN world in the future where there were still hundreds of countries on EARTH but only ONE GOVERNMENT: The Federation of Planets...
Can you imagine China, Russia, North Korea, the Middle East, Europe, South America, Africa, Australia agreeing to be controlled by ONE GOVERNMENT?
With that said...
everything in one's life was provided for FREE OF CHARGE... housing, food, clothing, allowance of money, education, healthcare, etc. and, if you did not want to work, then you did not have to work but your share of the pie would ONLY BE BASIC...
The more you offered to society through education, experience, and the desire to WORK, the greater your share of the PIE... like a bigger house, a bigger allowance, more food, a bigger vehicle, better vacations, better seats on an airplane... etc.

Everyone from EARTH was considered an EARTHLING with NO COUNTRY AFFILIATIONS[...
There was UNIVERSAL HARMONY...
BROUGHT ABOUT BY THIS BRAND OF SOCIALISM...
And, the American people bought it... hook, line, and sinker...
