So everybody has their own starship? And nobody's starship is any more powerful or luxurious than anybody else's?

There will always be scarcity.
If there isn't any at the moment, someone will figure out how to create a new scarcity so that they can have more of it, and thus make others envy them.

The reason nukes aren't being built has nothing to do with environmentalists, and everything to do with investors.
As in, there aren't any.

Who wants to invest in something that may pay back its construction costs in 20 years, when 5 years is considered a long time for ROI.
And that's only when the taxpayers are forced to underwrite the thing, since private insurance companies won't touch a nuke project.
