    Capitalism is inherently inefficient. If a species becomes interstellar it will almost certainly not be capitalist.

      Considering modern physical constrains interstellar travel is one of the most wasteful things you can do. It's basically a golden toilet of civilizational development. If aliens are stupid enough to travel to Earth at sublight speed they are probably capitalists.

        There's an incredible short story I read about aliens who just wanted to come to Earth for sex tourism.

        I don’t know. If everyones needs and desires are met because they don’t live under capitalism why wouldn’t they explore space?
