      Unless you can create a society that is completely satisfied with fulfilling their basic needs and nothing more, you will have scarcity at some point

        I think that a separate free market that is isolated from the necessities of life can help fulfill human ambition, but there need not be scarcity of the necessities of life.

          The scarcity is not in the production outside of demand items (electricity, water, etc) but in distribution. Things like bad infrastructure, war, corruption are the true hinderance
