As the population increases the demandsame of people rises which means industries and other firm are to involve in active production of daily wants which is highly demanded..
If a child is asked what he likes you will see that even a child will have so many things in mind to demand so to us adults our rises as we grow up and also as the world is civilization is growing very fast people no longer want things of the past but wants new creation
We should engage in more resources creation in other to make the rate of supply grow more than the rate of demands

The resources needed to satisfy all the want of human being are said not to be enough compared to all the want of humans we have many want we would like to satisfy at any given point in time which we may not be able to meet up with due to economic problems scales of preference simple is setting our needs inorder of priority.

You're never going to get everything you want in life but if you find a reasonable balance then you can sure be happy. Even Billionaires, who you might imagine have access to many things in life, may still be missing certainty in some areas of life - like do their friends like them as a person or just because of the monetary possibilities of being connected to them and whether the love of their life is genuine or again, just related to their bank account. You need to learn to keep trying hard and take in every little moment of joy that you can, often you can get those moments of joy by doing things for other people as well - not expecting anything in return. Scarcity is real, so make the most of what you've got.

There is always a big competition for most of the wants to satisfy the wants and so it comes that one way of achieving all the wants is to satisfy the people who which is why all the want of human beings are the main wants. One example of people that get all their wants but do not have the need to meet all the wants is a small small village named Ootah. Ootah is the main want for all the people in the village where they are getting all their wants. In a small village the need for people to go to their own village and if people want a little more all want will do.

So this example we are talking about you need to meet the people for a small to meet the people for a large amount of their wants and for this you must satisfy all the wants at least once a day in an environment that has a lot of people and not only that but people also do a lot of need tose people. You cannothat a large amount of people want because of their economic problems they need to meet them in order of priority they cannot meet all the wants because of the economic problem of their people.

What do you mean by the resources needed? The resources depends on what you mean but generally I think what this hypothesis is saying is that human beings naturally is made in a way that they will need so much to be comfortable and survive and because the buying power available (which is money) may not be always available to get all whatnot needed at a particular time and so they need to be scaled out in order of needs or preference. Therefore in this light I think as a human being even if you have all the wealth in the world to acquire the material needs you have, you can't purchase your emotions, mood and things that has to do with fulfilment, happiness or sadness , this is why another wise saying says a man can not finish all the things he set out to do in his life time until he diedbecause after achieving one another is in line to achieve etc I'm yet to see a rich person who has stopped making more money in his life time and this hypocrically explains the insatiable need of man.

We will require more resources as a result of our never-ending study and discovery. It's not just about meeting our basic human requirements; it's also about testing to discover the most useful items, like automobiles, motors, and other devices, that could save us energy and be of assistance. Nevertheless, despite these advancements, we continue to consume more resources as our desire for advancement grows. People discover that we could cycle the resources as we return what we took, but this will cause scarcity. For instance, we plant 10 tree plants for the trade for every tree we tear down. Since it takes years for trees to grow and because they provide us with oxygen, most rural areas have nice, clean air.

Therefore we must know if we can still in order the resources or if we are bound by any resource at some point in time.

We are not as regards how we know if, but at the begias for us our desire and our demands and our desires are already fulfilled. We want for a time not to fail the wants we are given in order to satisfy them we hbut if we meet it by any means it is all the same to satisfy all the wants we have.

But if we are at the end of the age we may not be satisfied with our desires and our demands.

Thus our demands will not be satisfied.

The desire is just a desire and therefore we need at the beginning of the age to meet all the wants we will get our wish.

Therefore we need to meet with all the wishes again in order to meet the wants we will get our wish.

So we have to meet with at least the resource we will have the resources as it is said if we are a worker and therefore

I agree, but not everyone puts their priorities first, some people tend to prioritize their desires first rather than fulfilling what they really need.
that is why people's nature and wealth are different because they have different principles.
It is easy for many people to confuse the two and think that a want is instead a need, for example I have a friend that always buys the newest apple smartphone as soon as it is released and I have asked them why they do that? As it is not as if the new model is a dramatic improvement over their previous model, and they say to me that this is something they need for their job, which is false as they could do their job with a smartphone which cost a fraction of the newest model, so they are a perfect example of someone which confuses what they want with what they need.

Resource prioritization and allocation are very complex matters that sometimes require a resolution according to fair and reasonable criteria. Sometimes, new desires are also created by new products and developments in science and technology, creating new needs.. However, that is not a reason to agree that resources are not enough to satisfy all human desires. Development and efficient use of resources can also help with this. We need creative creative to distribute and use resources in the most beneficial way for society as a whole.

Human needs always increase every generation as well as the preferences of each generation have an orientation in life so that it will form a new idea to fulfill their preferences if no one offers it to them, if you compare human desires and their resources I think it will never be enough at any time basically humans are never satisfied even though their wishes have been achieved, there is always a position where they think of new things and want new things that are increasingly trendy or more prestigious, I really agree that indeed resources will never be enough to fulfill every desire even if you have have what is in this world, impossible things will definitely be your desire.
It is true that never being satisfied is part of human nature but if it was not because of that then there will not be any advancement on the state of our civilization and everything will remain the same, as it is that desire what leads people to want to see what is beyond a mountain, an ocean and even the world, so it is interesting that our nature is both a curse and a blessing as without such nature it would be impossible for someone like Satoshi to ever exist.

Human wants are unlimited and obviously cannot be ever satisfied. Human needs on the other hand, can. And I think the mineral resources that are deposited and found on Earth are enough to satisfy our immediate needs if efficiently managed and utilized. I think you’re actually talking about human needs and not wants. We could set up a scale of preference and prioritize our needs in order not to fall into financial ruin.
I can understand why it would seem that resources aren’t enough to fulfill our needs. Governments of various countries who are tasked with managing and putting these resources to good use for the overall benefits of the society end up mismanaging them or even going as far as putting them into personal use.

True, it is not enough but it cannot be denied that there are still many greedy people who have power and abuse this power to obtain resources so that many people are deprived and can even get no resources at all.
Ultimately what needs to be met is not wants

The word used to describe our "wants" as humans is "Insatiable", which really means our wants cannot be satisfied and it is not just because of economic problems but because "wants" are never ending and if you try to satisfy all you want every time simply because you have the financial capacity to do so, you will end up spending money unnecessarily and will be putting yourself up for financial lack. Every category of people in the society from the poor to the rich have wants, so wants is not just for the poor or does experiencing financial problems.

scales of preference simple is setting our needs in order of priority.
You talk about "needs" here? I hope you know that there is a difference between "wants" and "needs"?

I do not think that this saying is correct. When our requirements were primitive, man discovered wood, which was burned to obtain fire and the beginning of energy. After the needs increased, coal appeared, including steam locomotives and internal combustion engines. Then oil appeared and the aviation industry developed. Therefore, when human needs increase, resources develop in return. necessary to cover these needs.

I remember 100 years ago, people did not know about oil, and even when it appeared, they were not aware of this wealth, so the next wealth may be close or even outside the planet. Wink

It is not. What the OP expresses is the Malthusian garbage vision, which proved to be wrong and maybe if we wait a long time it will become true, but like someone who predicts that tomorrow it will rain, and when the sun rises he predicts again that it will rain the next day, to do it again and again indefinitely until it finally rains. With 8 billion people and growing it could be that in the end we will have a problem of resources on earth, but when societies become richer population growth moderates and even reverses, so it remains to be seen if we will ever reach that catastrophic scenario. What we know to date is that no, Malthus was wrong, because human creativity and productivity go far beyond his imagination.

Humans by nature are never satisfied with thier needs and they always find it insufficient so they keep on complaining about that.
Realistically advancement of science and technology have provided humans with millions of facilities which they are using.
Actually it is not dissatisfied with needs, but because every need that has been obtained will still be used up over time so that every human being must continue to look for needs in his life and science and technology are tools that can be used by all humans to find the necessities of life that they need and I think it will always give satisfaction to every human being who is able to use it better in his life.

I think life is very simple but humans complicate it with endless unimportant pseudo-need-priority like need. And it goes on and on to create more scarcity of resources to satisfy our psuedo-need. Granted there are real needs and wants but they seem far from achievable because of too many economic problems.
But in reality, it is either we get one or the other. It is a trade. A trade - the most urgent need to the least urgent.
In doing so,we are making choices and setting priorities in allocating limited resources to satisfy unlimited wants and needs.
By doing this, we are choosing and establishing priorities in the allocation of finite resources to meet infinite wants and requirements.
The economis designed in such a way that the product designers make goods to appear that we actually need them by all means to survive. But in a real sense what we need to survive is not as much as what we want to acquire. We most times buy things that are not needed just because we have the spare money or we don't actually know what to do with money.
About what Op said, humans are working tirelessly to provide resources that will match human needs but the problem is that such resources also needs money to acquire them. At the end of the day, the problem is just money and nothing else.

Actually this statement is the basis of all the development. This saying itself means what you are saying. That human wants keeps on increasing. As we grow further, we Bring in new resources and then use those resources to create new wants. This actually is basis on which whole economics is based and how most of the major governments drive their economic decisions. So correct or not this saying exists in every part of our world

This relates to one's passion and lifestyle in living life, human priorities must be different in terms of position and financial levels, someone who tries to equalize one another are those who do not have a formula for their life. Imagine when someone is forced to buy something they don't need, while the need to buy is not an urge that they have to achieve, so that the impression is seen as a prestige to compete with other people who need it.

Setting needs in today's economic life is very important, if you are unable to control the preferences of the needs needed, then your financial level chaos will be problematic, which in the end you have to deal with loans from other parties. When our lives have entered this circle, then it's the same as you have trapped your own life in a big problem.

There are enough resources in the world to satisfy at least all basic needs of all people. But poverty and hunger in some places along with prosperity and luxury of the others (in most countries there are both types of places) is the result of developed capitalist policy. Now richest people of the world don't need money as the resource to spend, they need money as the tool to manipulate others. Most prosperous tycoons join forces with governments in pursuing such goals. So that unequal goods distribution is not an occasional thing, it's a thing which is used by rich to manipulate the poor ones.
