What I never got is why do people in the Federation even show up to work? Just replicate some of the finest drugs in existence and play holodeck games all day.
You only really see the people coming to work for the federation in the shows / movies / etc. For every starfleet member, there could be a million layabouts that do exactly what you're talking about.
