    Bobby’s saw a very different earth in the books tho.

    People living in UBI weren’t really living a paradise but they weren’t homeless hobos like in the show.

      Example B of earth being shittastic is the entirety of The Churn novella

      The story for The Churn is entirely Earth based and provides a description of what the average life in a crowded, metropolitan city is like in the world of the Expanse. The city of Baltimore has given way to a multitude of crime bosses, and organized black markets. There are multiple bosses who each keep a “family” of personal guards that operate the smuggling of goods, illegal memory implants, weapons smuggling, cybernetic implants, and other illegal goods and services. The story takes place over the course of about two days.
