One of my favorite science fiction book series is Iain Banks Culture series.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Culture
His novels are Star Wars for adults and they involve an advanced society called the Culture. The Culture is an anarchist utopian post scarcity society. They have cured all diseases. They are hedonistic. They are all about free love. They are basically hippies in space but they are no push over when it comes to war.
They live in habitats called orbitals.
So if a advanced civilization like the Culture visited Earth and allowed Humans to become citizens of their civilization would you join them?
