Truly ? What aspects of it ?

I mean they do have universal basic income on earth but apart from that humanity is all kinds of fucked. And it doesn't exactly get better as the story progresses.

The fact that the earth is even united and not completely screwed is already a great start. It was even recovering from climate change before Inaros.

The earthers are not doing that bad in the beginning that is true. But the rest of the system have it rough.

The earth is united like the United States is united. The tribes just got bigger is all. Instead of NATO vs BRICS, the Expanse universe has Earthers vs Martians vs Belters. And people are suffering hard on earth as evidenced during Bobby’s trip to the ocean.
