> Scarce resources is another myth

:confused_dog:

Scarcity is the underpinning of the entire economy. How is that a myth? The pie can grow, but that doesn't mean scarcity doesn't exist.

The pie has been growing ever since the invention of a wheel and agriculture.

What does scarcity even mean in this context?

Since scarcity is false, can you get me some white rhino horn? Supply and demand work because scarcity exists. Note: I don't actually want endangered species parts.
I can 3D print you a good copy of any horn.
