Alternative terminology for talking about post scarcity
Post Body

Under known science both STEM and ESPECIALLY Humanities, abolishment of scarcity is as impossible as abolishment of entropy.

What terminology do you think could we use to communicate the concept better?

Lately I've been quite enjoying the term "post survivalist" to denote ready access to the first two tiers in the hierarchy of needs.

For example: Internet, electricity, clean food and water are as available as daylight are today. You'll have pleasant accomodations but living in a specific location is limited by the demand for and carrying capacity of said location.

(On a sidenote, I think a society that is trying to fulfill social needs will likely bring back some iteration of malls).
