So you are trying to say that if we eliminate envy,jealousy,poverty,hunger,basically to have Mankind be free of want we could achieve Utopia. I’m not sure we can do that. Someone will be jealous of some else’s God given capabilities and talents and that would bring violence( Cain slew Able ).

Do the aliens look like this?

Could you do it?
Let’s start with the basics. Let’s say I want to add a room onto the house in which I live. Am I allowed to do that and thereafter live better than everyone else? Because under true socialism, the answer is NO!
The communists tried to do this. Everyone would be the same. They were running out of doctors, because no one wanted to work their asses off studying to be a doctor when they would make the same as a ticket-taker. Finally, they started paying doctors more.
Socialism is inherently an error.

Impossible. We are still humans.

How hot are their women? That is a large part to this equation.

First of all, as a loyal LSU fan, I would like to point out that the lead alien presenting the plan should NOT be the one presenting it. The alien that did the introduction was much more fluent and had a certain quality about him that you don't get from practice. AND the boss alien up in the ship obviously should be replaced! BY ANYONE! He couldn't even hold the spaceship still while hovering up there more than 30 seconds! I've never been so embarrassed.

F those commies
They’d have to die. All communist must die. We’d then have to take their communist spacecraft back to their home and kill the rest of them. We can’t allow communist ideals to spread unfettered across the galaxy.

Childhood's End is a 1953 science fiction novel by the British author Arthur C. Clarke. The story follows the peaceful alien invasion[1] of Earth by the mysterious Overlords, whose arrival begins decades of apparent utopia under indirect alien rule, at the cost of human identity and culture.
Pink Floyd even wrote a song about it (same name as the book)...
Be weary of your overlords...

Is this about us being in the Afghanistan?

I'd know they were up to no good. Socialism doesn't work, never has, never will.
If the quality/quantity of your efforts doesn't matter (under socialism, everyone gets the same rewards regardless of effort) then anyone who does actually work will do so at the lowest level, because Why work harder/smarter?

I don't like the aliens' Green New Deal either. Therefore Im out.

Not even aliens could make this a reality.

That is a nice bullet point but ultimately lacks imagination.
You’re right, my point does lack imagination. Imagination is the only way any species of life in this universe will ever have absolute power without becoming corrupt by it. I prefer to be realistic.
