Scarcity, I believe is manmade. Most times it is the product of one stupid decision made by someone at the top. Or it could be a summation of unwise choices made over time leading to a climax of scarcity. I believe that it is something that can be intelligently avoided...
One major reason scarcity would always be with us is the fact that humans are filled with greed. Not everyone has learnt to keep his greed in check.
The advantage of scarcity is that it forces people to look for alternatives and that's how their creativity emerges. There was a time animal hide was used as writing paper. And because animal hide was used for a ton of other things, clothes, shoes, bags... Paper became scarce. That's what forced people to turn to wood for paper and in some places, animal dung is used to make paper... Don't worry, it doesn't smell.😃
Overall, scarcity can be a tool or an enemy depending on the choices made based on it.
Well the video emphasises on creativity in the face of scarcity. While it can actually be natural it can be artificial as well and I went ahead to discuss how humans have become amazingly creative to stay afloat the lack and neediness that is being caused by scarcity. Spot on for analysis. Cheers you made valid points.
