It would help if aliens decide to show up!

Unless we destroyed earth by then.
We'll never live in a post-scarcity civilization due to human greed. Make the food available to all, somebody will always want more because it's in their nature. Greed is built-in to our behavior.

Aliens won't show up and stay if they're smart. Especially ones that have evolved past where we're at in regards to societal interactions and aspirations.
