RE: The Venus Project - Resource Based Economy
Resource Based Economy doesn't challenge it.
Merriam Webster define abundance as an amount or supply more than sufficient to meet one's needs.
And the post reads: Modern society has access to highly advanced technology and can make available food, clothing, housing and medical care; update our educational system; and develop a limitless supply of renewable, non-contaminating energy. By supplying an efficiently designed economy, everyone can enjoy a very high standard of living with all of the amenities of a high technological society.

Don't hesitate in asking questions. :)
So by magic, there will be enough of everything for everybody?
Yay! I am in!
Not magic. Just intelligent management of the earth's resources. The caveat is that a new value system needs to be in place throughout the culture for such a new society to be possible. Currently, too many are still excessively greedy. What does it mean to be excessive? Having more of something that you cannot realistically, and practically, use at/over a period of time.
