Add up the total rebuys you've had.
If it's more than zero you probably don't want to live in the Elite Universe.

Forget the wife and kids, how about some tasty, scantly clad green chick, with cats ears, and a furry tail, and all her friends....

Yes, because I'd love to explore the galaxy, and the first thing I'd do is hack the FSS to make it work realistically and not have to manually perform the Hunt-the-Blue-Blob minigame. 
*nod* Sign me up for the Culture.
That was one of the first that came to mind. The others all though a bit more brutal were Revelation space, and Dune, and Im sure there are a few Angus Thermopyle's play alikes who would be happy in the Gap.
You can't land on said ELW, though.
Seriously though... Remember. Loitering is punishable by death.

It's funny if someone said to me 30 years ago that I would be playing a computer game with people from all over the world on a computer that even by its standards are getting on a bit, and it sits down the side of my sofa and the phone on top of it is a 100 times more powerful than the pc I was using at the time. I would have laughed but then I then thought about it a bit longer and gone, yeah I can see that and it would be kind of cool.
Talking of phones, the one my best friends dad had at the time had a battery pack that he had to walk about with on a shoulder strap, also my dads VCR wasn't that mobile it was a huge camera and a portable vcr and a lot of leads, my first walkman although a huge breakthrough I could now take my tapes with me and listen to them, ok I had to turn it over when one side finished and the batteries didn't last that long.
My phone is an old Z3 from sony but it does all of the above in one small unit Im sitting here listening to a mix from Sister Bliss via the internet via a wireless connection things that I wouldn't have dreamed about when I was 18, not saying cars will ever go 5000 mph, but if humanity spent more time working as one than trying to kill each other just imagine how far we could go in the next 30 years. Crap I'll be knocking on 80 if I get that far and Im sure what we have now will seem like old hat.
Yes I do know there are rules and laws and physics is still physics but there will be someone born in the future who will work something out that makes us leave this rock and spread to the stars. Maybe not in the next 30 or even 300 years humaity even with all of its faults is forever moving forward. Personaly I dont think we will be here in 3304, the planet will be but not us

So not much different to today's world then? lol
Billions (trillions?) of inhabitants with middle-class incomes live decent lives in Federation, Empire and Alliance space. Interstellar commerce and mass production makes food and many consumer products affordable for the masses.
If you're poor or a slave in the Empire or live on a planet with a dictatorship then it's bad though. Basically similar to poor and oppressive countries on Earth.

They used to sell them back in 1450 CE, but I think that exploit's been fixed.
Not to mention the apparent complete absence of cheese.
