Regarding the interpretation of scarcity, I personally think that the film not only tells about a kind of scarcity, but more contrasts with a supply-demand relationship, that is, the material in the present world can meet the needs of the current world population, not enough to spend a lifetime It takes time to acquire a house of less than 100 square meters, and the generation of value is inversely proportional to supply and proportional to demand. Proper population control is also a control of demand, increasing supply and decreasing demand, scarcity is still far away. But in terms of today's population needs, the earth is far richer to meet our basic needs.
After reading a lot of people's explanations about desire, I personally think that desire is good or bad, it just depends on whether you base your desire on the premise of whether it is unreasonable to others. Suppose two people discuss whether the purpose of a debate is right or wrong, just look at it. Do you use a reasonable way to solve rather than a forceful way to convince you. The desire for a certain value based on a reasonable situation is radical, such as the desire for the spirit of adventure, while the desire for material can be realized in the absence of scarcity, but it is indeed a desire for your spirit.
The real democracy is that the people call the shots, why can't the people be a decision maker? There may be more or less knowledge that has not reached a certain level, but there will be at least two or more ways and methods for a certain decision, so that the public can understand everything, such as what decision 1 is and what decision 2 is, and the public will weigh it by themselves. With Ya, if a decision maker has not made a clear relationship with the interests, then more or less trade-offs are not trustworthy. On the other hand, the limited knowledge level of the people is not because of the "intelligence quotient", but because of the education level. In terms of IQ, it would be a fallacy to say that people today are smarter than in ancient times. On the contrary, the more education they receive, the more things the brain starts to think about, and the higher the IQ will evolve.
Technology is the premise of social progress, and it is also a manifestation, which also depends on the level of education. Therefore, the foundation rooted in the future society is definitely not money, but education.
