So what unnecessary scarcity exists today?

All the usual suspects, and a lot applies as much to Western countries as it does to the developing world.

  • Clean energy
  • Clean water
  • Nutritious food
  • Medicine and medical facilities
  • Decent housing in slum areas
  • High quality, interesting education
  • Safe transportation
  • The facilities for people to do more things for themselves - we are too reliant on machines and products from big business
  • Sounds woolly perhaps, but resources to get things done that need to be done
  • Time - people's time. Time to follow things important to the individual. Time for other people.
