What would the world be like if there was no scarcity?


The topic of this post is what would the world be like if there was no scarcity? Well, unfortunately we do have scarcity in the world, and our trouble is especially with water.

If there was no scarcity in the world the first thing that comes to mind is a perfect world, and maybe it is.


Most of the problems in the world are caused by scarcity, hunger, poverty, economic problem, etc. There wouldn't be hunger because we would have all the food we ever wanted and everyone would be able to have some because its unlimited. Because we would have all the resources we need there wouldn't be much sense in working as hard as we do, and money would not have that much of a value, meaning that we would all be rich and poverty would not exist.


Our way of life would be totally different from the way it is now, we would not be worrying about the lack of water, pollution, etc. Population would grow, there would be no need for immigration, exporting and there wouldn't even be wars, because wars are mostly about resources we find and since they are limited and valuable everybody wants them, like oil. The world would be a better place, everyone would be happy.


Sadly, we live in a world were most of our resources are scarce, so we must take care them and look for other alternatives. We must change our way of life,if we want to keep living.
