* In ''[[Star Trek]]'' it's mentioned that poverty is effectively no longer an issue in 24th century Earth. By the time of ''[[The Next Generation]]'' [[Teleporters and Transporters|transporters]] and replicators make most things so cheap that money is kind of pointless, making this is one of the reasons people of the 24th century tend to question the moral character of anyone from the 21st century.
** Then ''[[Star Trek: Deep Space Nine]]'' came along and deconstructed this. Because Earth has no money, they've lost the concept of the value of work (Jake at one point asks Nog to give up his entire life's savings for a baseball card, and thinks Nog's the one being unreasonable when he refuses) and they're too much of an ivory-tower utopia to really appreciate the troubles that happen out in the rest of the universe.
