Default Richest Socialist States and Poorest Capitalist States, if any

I keep having an idea for an adventuring party where part of the reason the oddball character traits are put up with by the disciplined folks with valuable skills is that one or more of the oddballs are special needs citizens of a wealthy state that practices socialized medicine and residence and the remainder of the party members can't quite cover the cost of their own maintenance.

Are there any candidates for rich-enough socialist states and poor-enough declining states in 2100? How cheaply can biological people live, either in a vehicle with an interplanetary scope or in a man-rated cargo container with similar scope?

I'm thinking it was found to be cause for a tempban and so deleted. I remain hopeful that the poster, and all posters, really, can contribute by posting in the hypothetical context so that real-world issues remain in the subtext.
