Zhodani (Traveller Alien Module 4)

"In a culture where psionics is an accepted talent, available to all with high enough potential, the very fabric of society is changed. Those with the talent are naturally the elite; those without are the proletariat. Such a society can naturally evolve to oppress the masses. But a psionic society also allows perfect communication, and can produce a better society for everyone. The Zhodani, humans who discovered and adopted psionics early in their history, had both choices, and took a little of each. The result is a psionic society where everyone is happy and content, because psionic reeducation ensures the discontent are found and shown the errors of their ways. Zhodani, Traveller Alien Module 4, describes in detail this alien race, its homeworld, and its starfaring society.
