I think it is going to go the way of The Next Generation Start Trek series.

Like in the series lore humanity has a really rough go of things for a time _ thus why the crews first interactions with the Q where set in a time were we as a species where still quite brutal/angry/self obsorbed and stupid.... but eventually we move past this stage slowly and over time we come together to create a working society that no longer needs money/job security/food security as technology soon becomes our partner instead of a weapon or a means to power.
