I've watched all of the Zeitgeist movies and studied the Venus Project along with multiple Jacques Fresco interviews. I've also enjoyed a Culture in Decline by Peter Joseph (he makes a lot of really good points), but I'm still not onboard wth the "Scarcity is a completely artificial thing." You even contradicted yourself here saying "completely" and then describing some things which are scarce. To me, it's simple economics of supply and demand. That's what creates scarcity. Send me the links though, I'd like to look into it more. As I said, there are some interesting ideas out there, but for me, so far, they don't fit with reality.
