Post-Scarcity

The Federation, at least in its core worlds is post-scarce. Commentators often claim that this represents socialism or even communism but it doesn't. Post scarcity is not Socialist or Communist because socialism and communism both involve redistribution of wealth and this is unnecessary in a post-scarce society. The redistribution of wealth is post-scarce society wouldn't even be meaningful. In a post-scarce society everyone has as much as they need. If wealth was redistributed in a manner which resulted in individuals or groups no longer having as much as they need then the society would no longer be post-scarce by definition.
