Talk:Scarcity

Air is not scarce at all.

This line, "For example, although air is more important to us than gold, it is less scarce simply because the production cost of air is zero." Should be edited to say, "For example, although air is more important to us than gold, it does not have scarcity because the production cost of air is zero."

Suggestion:Proposal to move article to Scarcity (economics)

Seems unwieldy to see all these page titles with scarcity in them without the benefit of a disambiguation page. This page is clearly about an economic concept, why not retitle it (Move it) to Scarcity (economics) like the Scarcity (social psychology) article? I will also develop the disambiguation page to go with this. Also, propose to move the book reference to the see also section. (A bit commercialistic the way it's laid out as part of the lead.)
